Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile
I've been busy writing. After my publisher made the decision not to pick up the next book, readers and fellow writers alike have suggested that I write another story that further explores the interplay between wrestling and soaps like my first novel Dothan yet doesn't rehash the romance from the previous work.
This story however, will be a family saga that will start with a romance between a carnie worker who books athletic shows at his father's carnival and a woman who works for her mother's consumer goods company that sponsors these daytime dramas on radio.
The story will span the decades, and trace the trials and tribulations of the family they made together against the backdrop of how wrestling evolved from the carnie athletic shows and how soaps evolved from the daytime dramas. The story will end in the 1980's-1990's at the height of popularity for both wrestling and soaps with bizarre over the top storylines, and how the internet almost destroyed both, and these events affect the family.
On a sidenote, publisher Whiskey Creek Press is interested in evaluating my unpublished manuscript entitled The Anti-Hero's Journey
