My new book will be released on Friday, June 14th (the 6-month anniversary of the Sandy Hook shooting)
I'm not really one to believe in fate or destiny. I tend to believe in chance and coincidence. While I still believe that chance and coincidence are much more likely to be the case than fate and destiny with regard to a recent series of events, I have paused for a moment to wonder if the less likely of the two scenarios could possibly be true, before shaking my head and saying, "Nah."
Not long ago, I received a comment from a radio talk show host in Los Angeles (Norman Goldman), who complimented a blog I wrote, and shared that blog on his Facebook, Twitter, and home pages. It sounded as if he discussed the very topic my blog centered around on a show of his as well. This past Saturday, I laughed hysterically at the fact a proof copy of my new book - LOL at the GOP - Volume 3: Guns Don't Kill, Cars Don't Drive, and Ovens Don't Bake - was in my car at the time a person laid a flier on the vehicle regarding a gun-training program in Central Ohio headed by an NRA-certified instructor. Due to a couple of typos I noticed in the first proof copy of my new book, I fixed the errors and sent away for a second copy, only to realize that this coming Friday is the 6-month anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Chances are I'll receive the book on Wednesday or Thursday, but thought to myself, "How fitting would it be for this book to be released on the 6-month anniversary of the horrific school shooting which, along with the debates it prompted, was the main inspiration for this book in the first place?"
So, after very little deliberation, I have decided to release the book in both paperback and Kindle form on Friday, June 14th - 6 months to the day when the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut took place.
I'll be certain to update readers on the matter over the next week, but mark your calendars - LOL at the GOP - Volume 3: Guns Don't Kill, Cars Don't Drive, and Ovens Don't Bake will be available for purchase this coming Friday, June 14th.
