On November 1st, I released "The Year We Finally Solved Everything," a dark, faced-paced, contemporary novel about settling down, growing up, and all that mess in between the two.

The global economy is in tatters not because of humanity’s faults but because of its accomplishment. The country of Shan Won, a small island state off the coast of China, has cured all of our ills, and like a black hole, a piercing singularity of perfection, it’s sucking the world dry of its stability and leadership and power.
Human traffickers become overwhelmed with smuggling hordes of North Americans across to Asia for a better life. And for Richard, for whom growing up seems to have solved nothing at all, escape seems to be his only option. But when he become reacquainted with Mia, the girlfriend of his twenties, he’s no longer certain about just what’s the problem and what’s the solution. He only knows that he’s running out of time.

To all of you who downloaded the free pre-release version, I'd love to hear what you think! I even take criticism well. I promise I won't go all M.R. on you. Lord knows, I've received enough rejection letters to develop a decently thick skin.
