I haven't said much about my possible third project because (a) I don't want to jinx it and (b) it's not entirely clear how it's going to work out. But I am working on it. I'll just say it has the potential to be a long-term project and not just one item.
Speaking of one item: watch for a surprise Feb. 11 regarding my e-books. Write it down. And don't forget, getting your tax refund is the perfect opportunity to buy a copy!
The website for the book Chronicles, a collection of newspaper columns by Ray Barrington. The columns cover everything from the Green Bay Packers to politics, life in Wisconsin, sad losses, and, of course, cats.

Updates
1. I have a meeting Friday with a contact on my newest project - will know more after that.
2. The Kickstarter.com attempt to raise money for the NFL book is going on. There's a link to it at the blog, for those of you reading this elsewhere.
3. Oh, and "Chronicles" is still out there!

Kickstarting the NFL book
I have opened an account at Kickstarter.com to fund research and necessary photo purchases for the book about NFL stadium history, "The Fields Where We Used to Run." I'm trying to collect $2,500, which would mostly go to purchase copies of old photos. It would also fund postage for contacting other sources and possibly some travel. I have 60 days...hope I can cross the finish line! (And there will be rewards for some donors!)

No news, but news
No news: It's been quiet over the holidays. But if you got an Amazon, B&N or iTunes gift card, you can still get a copy of "Chronicles" at any of those site. And, of course, through Lulu.com, or through me (and have it signed!). It's also been quiet because of computer problems at home (in fact, I'm updating this at the library.)
I hope to have news soon on a major project regarding a new book about a notable Midwest tourism site. And that's all I will say for now.
