Why a Web site?

So you can get in touch with me, order a book, schedule a personal appearance, reading, or book signing, or just loiter. And so I can pretend that when I'm hiding from my wife and daughter in the office I'm "working on my site."

"Honey, It's not that I wouldn't love to scrub the oil, acorns and chewing gum residue off the driveway, it's just that I'm working on my site. The fact that I'm half-naked, full of Yoo-Hoo to the point of illness and toggling between six football games on the computer does not mean I am not working on my site.

"You just don't understand technology. "
