What is a tome, you may be asking?

The word “tome” more commonly means “a large book,” but its secondary, and original, meaning is simply that of a volume within a larger work. That is the meaning of “tome” I’m intending, so don’t worry – I’m not sending you a large book every week.

            However, each week, I will send a piece of my writing – a short story, a segment of a novel, some poetry, an essay, even an idea for a future book – and I will discuss a topic that interests me. Each topic will contain humor unless it’s a very serious topic, and most of them will pertain to my personal life, past or present. Eventually, some or all of these “Topics” will be compiled into a memoir that I, hopefully, will publish. Time will tell, as it always does.

With your subscription, you will get to read segments of my writing – some published, most not (yet) – and there will be monthly giveaways as well as opportunities for you to take part in my writing through weekly questions that I’ll pose for my readers.
