Fall Out Front

ForeWord Magazine writing
I have frequent book reviews in ForeWord Magazine, a bi-montly publication for the independent book world. Go to ForeWordMagazine.com, click on "Book Reviews" and then scroll through the "reviewers" listed. Click on my name and you'll see the reviews and a handful of stories I've done on book trends as well.
