I’m loathe to do this, but I have to shut down this blog for a few months, unfortunately, problem through the end of the calendar year. My book deadline is coming up rapidly, and I really need to focus in on getting it done. It’s been a lifelong career goal to write a book, and I’m determined to follow it through this time.

Thanks to everyone for reading and for helping me along the way. I’m still accepting donations if you’re able and willing, and as always I’d be incredibly grateful.

In the meantime, if you have any questions, suggestions or research leads for me, please feel free to email me at either rwhirty218@gmail.com, or rwhirty218@yahoo.com.
