The Chief and Books

I was honored this morning to read a review - written by a man I know only as The Chief - of Homefront. I found his blog, "The Chief's Forum," the way people find blogs (through other people's blogs) a while ago and was immediately drawn to its diversity. The Chief talks sports (and, okay, those posts I admit I don't read), movies (who doesn't love to talk movies?), politics (but not in a "my candidate rules and yours is stupid" way), and books (enough said).

I've seen a list of the stuff he reads. It's the same stuff I would read, were I reading right now. So for him to review my book was not only damn nice of him (because it's nice of anyone to take the time if they're not getting paid by some magazine), but something I'd been anticipating. What he had to say - because of what he likes to read, and because of the things he likes to write about - made me that much more curious to know what he thought.

Here's a teaser Chief-thought from the review: "Donny is not simply a drunk veteran."

What else is he? you wonder.

The rest can be found at The Chief's Forum, which should be visited frequently simply because there's always something new going on over there.

Humbled am I.

Reading Homefront was my pleasure - I connected with it on a personal level. More accurately, through Mia, you connected to me.

Thank you for your kind words, Kristen - they mean a great deal to me - sincerely.

Oh... by the way... give me enough time... you'll be a Pirates and Steelers fan yet!
