I’m proud to post that my brother has had his very first novel published!  He has been working on it for the better part of the last 10 years - the manuscript being one of the only things he grabbed and took with him when he evacuated the Katrina devastation.  When he left his home, he wasn’t expecting the situation to be as bad as it was and they only grabbed a few personal things, about 3 days worth of clothes, and their cat.  Subsequently, they were kept out for months and lost nearly everything to the flood.

I’ve yet to read the novel and I should be receiving my copy soon, but I wanted to let my readers know that I can pretty much guarantee that they will not be disappointed if they pick it up.  I am that confident in my brother’s writing talents.  He has had several short stories published throughout the years and he’s an English teacher.  He holds two (yes, 2) Masters degrees, in English and Latin and he’s a tested genius.  Can anyone tell that I am proud of him?

We have always been close - he is my big brother and we share the same birthday.  I was his birthday present when he was 9. 

If any of you happen to pick up “Tiny Clubs” please let me know what you think, I’m dying to hear.

“Geoff” is the best teacher I’ve ever had. I just ordered the book and look forward to reading it. I will be at the signing on the 20th.

Hi! We were friends with Geoff and Alyss when we lived in New Orleans from 1991-1994. We kind of lost touch after we returned to Austin and he want on his trip to India but were looking for a way to reach him. We didn’t even know he had gotten published until we stumbled on this site. We would love to hear from him and let him know I am ordering his book right away!
