"Dyrk Rinehart lost his wife and two young children in a senseless car accident. So when Rachel Banister asks him to locate a dying brother who has disappeared, Dyrk understands her urgency. In the course of his investigation, however, Dyrk -- along with his partner Carla Stevers -- learns that even in a fully free society danger abounds. Before Dyrk and Carla discover what happened to Paul Banister, they find themselves threatened by drug smugglers, racists, and a secret from Dyrk's past that will rattle the foundations of his world."

Don't mean to be all rude, I'd rather raise it as an honost question, but how does this fit in to our discussions?

I mean you don't see me advertising my legal services (although I do trumpet my legal skills on occaison). Never mind, anybody in Ohio needs an lawyer, gimmie a note. I'm good for keepin people outa jail, put'n 'em in jail, gettin 'em some money, or keepin 'em from hav'n to pay money. No tax cases, wills, trusts, or anything that requires complicated math skills or land transfers.

Oh, if your not in Ohio and need a lawyer you can still hire me. There's some rule says I can appear in other states if I needs want too. Its a full faith and credit thing.

Well. I didn't realize that there were prohibitions on topics. This is a real-world event. It's a pro-freedom novel. Firefly is pro-freedom. Plus, I saw an announcement on another thread of someone who had published a book. No one raised any objection of this kind there.

If there are specific prohibitions on what may or may not be discussed on this list, perhaps they should be more prominently displayed. In lieu of that, readers can simply ignore what they do now care to read.

Hey, Russ, congratulations on your novel!

Oh, and, just ignore Hero.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

What people don't realise is that everybody except Steven King writes novels the same way. They start with a blank sheet of paper and concentrate really hard until the blood from their brow forms words on the page.

Congratulations on getting it finished!

Thanks for the good wishes. As other writers are well aware, this can be a "thank"less career, sometimes...
