Month: September 2015

If there are any Kris Rutherford fans out there, you can catch me writing on a variety of subject every two weeks in The Roxton Progress. If you’re interested in supporting a small-town newspaper, one many call “the best little newspaper in Texas,” please visit www.theroxtonprogress.com for more information.

I’m in the middle of a fun and exciting project, helping someone write their autobiography/memoirs. It’s a real adventure taking the notes and comments the subject offers, researching a little of the background, then turning the events into a narrative. Be on lookout for it later this year!

On September 26, I’ll be signing books all day at the annual Roxton Saturday Night celebration. Stop by the Roxton Progress table, and I’ll be happy to sign your copy of “The Galveston Buccaneers.” While your at it, pick up a subscription to the Roxton Progress!

Last month’s trip to Galveston for the signing of my latest book, “The Galveston Buccaneers: Shearn Moody and the Texas League Championship,” was a rousing success. The first night I attended a reception at the Moody Mansion, signing nearly 80 books for over 100 people attending. It was a great experience to sign books on the very floors that Shearn Moody once walked. Special thanks to Doug McLeod and the Moody Mansion staff for making this happen!

The next night, I was off to the Galveston Bookshop, the island’s only bookstore. Although the crowd was smaller, they were extremely interest in both the new book and my previous title, “Baseball on the Prairie.” I enjoyed talking baseball and signed a dozen or so books as well. Thank you to the Galveston Bookshop. If you’re ever on the island, it is a must-see!
