New for me in 2008

Haunted Heart is available in paperback in spring of 2008 - save money!
A humongous publication called the "African American National Biography"
is also coming out - Oxford U. Press. I contributed the bit about Dorothy Donegan, a wildly talented (wild IS the word) pianist who veered from dazzling
technique to slapstick - this is my opinion. She could play a whole lotta notes up there in shooting range of Mr. Tatum, but...
I'm working away - for once, fairly confidently - on a novel. It's called After Leaving America and is set in the early 1970's in Mexico. My how things have changed since the pre-internet, pre-cell phone et al., days.
