It's not exactly a Pulitzer Prize, but my book
Shalom On The Range was mentioned in the December 28, 2007 issue of Entertainment Weekly (as the runner-up to the best book title of the year). Although they didn't list my name--just the book title--it's still no small feat to be mentioned on the same page as J.K. Rowling, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Stephen King, especially for a pocket-sized publishing company like Strider Nolan Publishing. Or for a Western, for that matter, the toughest genre to sell these days.
Hopefully my second book (due out in 2008) will have a decent chance of getting reviewed in the magazine. I don't know if the title will be as clever (I'm leaning toward either
"Takeout At the O.K. Corral" or
"With Six Shooter You Get Eggroll") but I'm sure the first sentence will be a kicker:
"Two Jews walked into a bar."Shalom, y'all!
