Blackbird flies

Here we are, nearly 4 months after publication of BLACKBIRD, and I continue to be totally amazed as the response to the story.  For those of you who read the book here are some comments:

There is a little bit of the author in every one of the characters.

I am 83 years old, and thought all of my adventures were over. But now I renewed my ham radio license and dusted off the old ham radio equipment for the start of the rest of my life!  Thanks for the motivation!

Where did you get all of that technical detail?

I told my wife to read the last line:  "Are you ready for another adventure?"  When is the next one coming?

This weekend is the HamCon 2011 Amateur Radio Convention in Torrance California at the Marriott Hotel on Fashion Circle in Torrance.  I will be there with my books, and a lot of stories to tell.  You can also read about the book in the Beach Reporter, September 8, 2011 edition. 

I am looking forward to the next adventure, too.  Who knows? We may see it on the big screen one day!
