In March of 2002, my writing mentor, the Venice West poet John Thomas, died of heart failure; his was the editor's voice in the back of my head. In August, I ruptured my Achilles tendon; the worst orthopedic injury you can have without shattering something, according to the staff at the orthopedic surgery office. Then, in October, my co-worker/friend/mentor John Taylor died in his hotel room. It was too much. I became broken enough to write poetry.
I would say it was a bad year, except the same year I also met two incredible artists in Los Angeles, RD "Raindog" Armstrong and Gabe Leonard. Without their help, The Judge T Chronicles wouldn't have turned out nearly as well as it did. I'm about to order the second printing -- That's right! THE JUDGE T CHRONICLES is in its SECOND PRINTING -- NOW WITH PAGE NUMBERS, an epilogue of sorts, and a new color cover.
