Finally! I am getting off my duff and making ANTI-SOCIAL LAWNMOWER a priority for the last half of the year. I started to write some of the internal stuff that is going to go with the book just this last week. The first bit is a comic strip about how I came up the name of the book. In every book I have published so far (a total of four) I have spent a bit of time in the author's note describing the circumstances or reasoning behind the title of the book. This will be the first time that I mark the occasion by telling it in comic strip format. I have decided that I will have several such "vignettes" sprinkled throughout the pages. I haven't decided exactly how many or what topics just yet but probably 5 or 6 of them total. I am still looking to do about 200 pages total for the length of the book, but I will let the work decide for me how long it will be. It could be longer! Yikes!

In the meantime, I am considering selling off the remainder of my collection of books that I have left from my previous publishing excursions to help fund this little hobby of mine. I hope that you are all strapped in for this. I plan on sharing my progress here as it happens, and of course showing off some of the new stuff at my website which is still under re-construction. check it out here.

ciao for now sahib,
