Spending time off Farrell Street--and still alive

Note: To the four or five ADD-addled surfers who either check or happen upon this blog from time to time, you’ve probably noticed I haven’t been posting a whole lot of work lately (aside from last year's The Mark of St. Mary).

Have I stopped writing? No; quite the opposite. I’ve thankfully been freelancing for a variety of Buffalo publications over the past three years, which has cut into my introspective blog time. I also put out a new, semi-refined copy of my first novel (Running with Buffalo) with No Frills/Amelia Press, and have spent any other writing time working on the 94th edit of my second novel, When the Lights Go Out (now available). This offering is getting closer and closer to seeing the light of day, so stay tuned for details.  

So, translation? I’ve been busy. The good news is that, if you are interested in finding anything with my byline—and you refuse to pick up paper copies of either The Buffalo News, Buffalo Spree or WNY Craft Beer Magazine—there are plenty of links on the Interwebs to explore.

And if you need to get hold of me? Email farrellstreet@gmail.com.

I’ll be back to regularly posting on this site sooner than later. Until then, scroll (and click) below to see what I’ve been doing with myself, look for more of my work on a browser near you, and stay tuned for more.
