Hi. I'm Tom. This is my website, at least for now. I'm using this site to chronicle the development of the book I'm working on: For Love of God and Beer: Adventures of a Schizophrenic Evangelical. Some people in the book publishing business have been telling me that my chances of ever getting this book published are slim to none unless I change my approach. They don't seem to think there's much of a market for a book about some unknown person's faith journey that has naughty words in it or that presents the hero as the screwed up person that I not only was, but still am.
Problem is, if I change the approach, it won't be true. It won't really be my story. It would be the story of some fictional guy who has his act together. Which certainly isn't me. So, instead of watering it down, I thought I'd float some stuff out there and see what people think of it. Maybe, if enough people indicate an interest in reading something like this, a publisher might become convinced that perhaps there is a market for a book like this after all. Of course, for every person who may like it, I'm sure there will be many more who hate it or are offended by it or think it's sacrilegious or just plain boring. And if that's how you feel about it after reading a little, I'll understand.
If you've got it in you, I'm hoping you'll read the Prologue and then take the God and Beer Survey. After you do that, check back in from time to time as I post different sample chapters of the book and add more content to this site.
Cheers. |
