Let's cut to the chase.

Did you know the phrase "cut to the chase" originated in the film industry way back when? When directors made their movies too long, the studio boss would insist they get to the action, which was usually a climatic chase scene. Hence, get rid fid of all the fluff and "cut to the chase." And yes, I'm aware of the irony that arises when I digress to explain the origin of the idiom. (As I reread that sentence, I realized it makes me sound a lot smarter than I really am.)

Anyhow, my three Jeremy Winter novels are currently not available (except in audio versions). Long story short, the rights to the novels have been reverted to me from the publisher. That's a good thing.

The books will be available again in about three months, most likely with new covers. If you have the old versions in paperback, you have collector's items! They're probably worth, uh, yeah. Remember Beanie Babies? Don't cash out your 401k just yet.

The good news is that if you want to get your hands on copies between now and when they're back on Amazon, I've got a few available. I'll even autograph them if you don't mind the value decreasing. If you want to purchase some, let me know. And I'll be giving some away too, so keep an eye out.

"Keep an eye out." I'm afraid to research the origin of that one. Probably pirates or something. Whatcha think?

Until next time, stay safe. Keep reading. And if you live in northeast Tennessee, keep an eye out for me. We're moving up your way soon and I'd love to meet you!
