Greetings!  I apologize for the lengthy delay.  I recently discovered that I will be medically retired from the Air Force and the search is on for a “real” job that will complete my transition to civilian life. Much of my time has been starting my job search and writing my resume.  My near 22 years has been quite the adventure and I have been proud to serve since Day 1 as a nervous 18-year-old boarding a plane at Portland International Jetport in Portland, Maine.  My very first flight…and ironic, since I spent 12 years of my career as a boom operator on board the KC-135 racking nearly 4,000 hours aboard an airplane soon to be retired as well…I’d do it all over again.

I am pleased to announce, that after some final edits, “Bleeding the Vein” will be ready to submit to agents and publishers and the wait will begin as I begin novel 3, about an iconic theater in Lewiston, Maine (The Empire Theater, opened in 1903–where I actually saw the original Superman) that was torn down in recent years, seemingly without any concern…I still find it hard to believe the history that is just, well…gone.

Cheers,

TGA
