I am the author of "The Knuckleball From Hell," a very offbeat and irreverent comedy about life, love, baseball, the New York Mets, and everything in between. One reviewer said that "If Tom Robbins and Kurt Vonnegut teamed up to write a baseball novel, this would be it."
Wow, I was flattered and shocked and excited when I learned that
Mike Vaccaro, sportswriter for the NY Post mentioned my book, "The
Knuckleball From Hell," in a recent column of his as a recommended
read. Here's the link:

If you scroll to the last paragraph you will see where he mentions my novel.
I would like to connect with you there also. I am trying to make more friends and fans so that I can spread awareness for breast cancer during pregnancy. I was diagnosed Stage 3 in the 5th month of my pregnancy in May. My status updates on Facebook and LinkedIn are usually about my fight.

Scribblers’ Retreat is a non-profit organization established with the goal of reaching writers of all ages; to inspire and promote their hidden gifts and talents.
By involving the local community, authors, publishers, editors, journalists and all forms of the literary world, we are opening their minds and bringing hope where there was doubt.
Scribblers’ Retreat is not the typical classroom setting. It was designed to bring world-class authors, literature professors, editors, journalists, illustrators, photo journalists, proofreaders, publishers, publicists, screenplay writers, and website/graphic designers, etc. one-on-one with young and old alike. It is the opportunity of a lifetime for someone who has had a manuscript in a desk drawer for 40 years or who has an outstanding poem that simply must be read.

Thanks. It's a slightly skewed look at the world, kicks dirt in the face of hypocrisy, and gives people something to laugh at. Your peace work appears to be very valuable.
