Happy birthday to Charley, happy birthday to you…

I know I’ve been inactive all month. The reasons being (A) I’m on a book-reading binge on account of all the books I got for my birthday and (B) I’ve had a sudden burst of creativity re: writing. Writing is usually tremendously hard for me and now that it’s suddenly become easy, I’m seizing the opportunity while it’s there.

But in the spirit of commemoration, namely the Charley Project’s decennial (yes I had to look that word up), updates SHALL resume today. As usual, a lot has happened in the missing persons world in the past two weeks and I’m anxious to put it all down. And also to reply to those emails that have been piling up.

An aside: I’ve finally published a few of my short stories on Kindle edition on Amazon. None of them are new; in fact two of the three are several years old. But check them out on Amazon if you want; just search for my name. They are normally 99 cents each but there’s a free promotion on two of them right now, so get ’em while they’re hot. I would appreciate an honest review while you’re at it. And I’ve had a new Execution Today entry published, the 1888 hanging of deranged teenage mass murderer Frederick Mann.
