Yes, we are going to release The Original Self this year. Any delays are wholly my fault. It’s been a stressful year for me (and I don’t deal well with stress–everything just grinds to a halt and very quickly I might add). My son was dealing with mental health issues that included depression, bi-polar disorder and suicide attempts. I spent months going to Mexico nearly every weekend after work on Friday only to return in the early hours of Monday morning to go back to work. Despite his diagnosis and medical treatment, though there was a period of improvement, it just got worse. In September, we had to start looking for a facility in which to have him institutionalized for his own safety–and we did so in October.
So yes, there are three books are ready to go and very little needs to be done, relatively, to get them out, but I’ve been somewhere else–both mentally and often physically.
I’m being open and revealing more than I should probably do in a public forum. But I am not embarrassed by this. And I want you to know that we are still here. And we appreciate–I more than anyone–your patience.
