The December 6, 2019 Maine Calling show on Maine Public Radio held a wonderful surprise. My latest book, Hermit, was named one of the top picks for 2019.

High praise indeed. Thank you.

When you happen upon the story of a lifetime, you are destined to follow it, nurture it and bring it out into the light.

I created this book trailer to give you a flavor for who I went about telling this remarkable tale.

Generous people are everywhere, even in places where you don’t seem to be looking for them.

I was recently reminded of this fact (several times over in fact) when my radiator hoses exploded on my way home from a book festival.

Today’s Bangor Daily News ran a marvelous article about the mysterious Jim Whyte and his lurid career.

To be sure, the man lived a swashbuckling life from beginning to end.

The first print run of Hermit: The Mysterious Life of Jim Whyte sold out quickly. The good news for you is that I saved eight copies to create a Goodreads Giveaway.

But you don’t have long to enter, so do it now!
