How many books have you written in the past twelve months? |

One, not of political interest though.
You?

3. That's pretty cool. It's how you make your living, I guess? |

Mine was a side project. It was published as a very limited edition so I didn't really make any money from it. Mine was genealogy related. My next, if there is a next, will be political.
What genre were yours?

the oral history and traditions of 3 Native American tribes for the FBIA. Two have no written languange and have only spoken, oral traditions and history. One is a nomadic tribe with an incohesive history.
I also write poetry and do some research protocols for Encarta.

I've written a long, well written book, but never want it published. That's why I put my periodic thoughts here.

2 Fantasy (looking for pre-pub readers) 1 Magical Realism (ditto) 1 Adolescent Coming of Age Romance no clue where to sell it markety thingy. (Interested in seeing if anyone else has any interest in it.)
This is what I do instead of practicing head shrinking. The pay's terrible, the hours are bizarre, and it makes my book habit really impressive.... but it's all research, right?
Working on: a polemic on parenthood A series of satires on politics (a la The Onion) A short about 3 bombers in prison talking about philosophy (inspired by a real incident) the 3rd in the Fantasy series A Hard SF about neurological enhancements and the wage-slave economy
ALWAYS looking for first readers, so if anything interests you, please pm/email me....
