Hello, and Happy New Year! Nothing like hitting the ground running with a blog post on the first day of the new year. I have been a slacker for the last year, busy writing Bad Pharma, retiring from my day job and all the emotional shifts that come with Retirement, switching from lawyering to writing as a primary career, and trying to live in a world that always seems to be tilting toward extinction. It reminds me of a scene in Anne Rice’s, The Queen of the Damned, where Akasha, the queen, stares into the vast ocean of humanity with unblinking eyes — every terrible thing that has befallen humankind for the last 6,000 years passing before her — leaving her mute with horror and as tormented as the mortals themselves.

Well, this is my push to start things off right. I’ll do so with a lovely book review of Bad Pharma from Literary Titan in which the editors admired the “rich and complex characters”, calling it a “moral inquiry wrapped in an engaging narrative” that they “would highly recommend it to anyone intrigued by the intersection of science, ethics, and corporate drama. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a corporate worker, or simply a fan of thought-provoking conspiracy thrillers, this book will make you question how much we’re willing to compromise in the name of progress.“

Thanks, Literary Titan!

To read the full review, go here to Literary Titan. And as always, thanks for reading!

That’s all for today, folks. After all, it is a holiday, and I have just completed one of my most important resolutions.

The happiest of New Years to you. May you be blessed in the most amazing ways.
