Belated Thanksgiving Message

This world is an imperfect one, but still there are plenty of things to be thankful for: the love of family and friends, those memories shared and memories to be made.

I am thankful for my readers.

Much luv,

Russell Pennwright

Dear Readers,

It has been a long time since I directly wrote a letter to you. I've been busy writing and doing research for a long-term book project. It's a trilogy. And, we all know how long that can take. The process of finding a good publisher is also tedious and I will give you an update on that. But, I can definitely say that I will not have more published works for awhile, since I am in my dormant stage of my career in which I am writing multiple novels.

Thank you for your patience.

And, I humbly do appreciate the support of my readers no matter what part of they world they are.

Cordially yours,

Russell Pennwright

Pray for the East

I would like to take this moment to say to my readers, my twitter followers, and my blog followers that I do sincerely keep the people horribly affected by Hurricane Sandy in my mind, in my heart, and in my soul. I do pray for their well-being.

Bad Call

I don't know about the rest of baseball fans around the world, but the blown call by the empire in the 7th inning in the Yankees-Tigers game tonight has got to be one of the worst calls I've ever seen. And, to make matters worst, after the call was made, the player from the Tigers still never even touched 2nd base.

Yankees

Oh, yeah. But it's delayed due to rain. It's torture waiting for it.

Jeremy Lin and the Basketball Season

The basketball season is underway, just nearly 29 days to go for the start of the regular season. In Houston, all the attention is on Jeremy Lin.

Lin has been much of a project during the waning weeks of the 2011-2012 NBA season. It will be interesting to see how well he develops in the last couple of months. I don't like buying into hypes, but from what I saw, Jeremy Lin does have talent. The talent is definitely there. What he makes of that talent and how he hones it, will be entirely up to him. In other words, he will only excel by how well he composes himself in the court.

The NBA season is a long and gruesome ordeal. The sport itself isn't for the faint of heart. Many obstacles confronts a player throughout the year whether it's simply exhaustion, mental blocks, and most definitely the most dreaded of all: injury. These are the things that happen. The other obstacle that's often overlook is being away from family.

In the midst of it all, the Houston Rockets decision to sign Jeremy still remains a great question of being a good one or a bad one. There's no doubt that Jeremy has talent. But, can he shine? That's the question.

If you ask me, in my own personal opinion, he will have a better chance to be great in a city like Houston where the market isn't as big as New York. That doesn't mean however, that he won't get plenty of attention.

The E-Books

The more and more I think about the E-book business, the more I actually like it. It makes it easy for readers to buy your book. It's too convenient and that's good. Now, I can't remember why I didn't like it in the first place.

People can read "The Prince of the Shadow Warriors" in seconds in their Kindle and Nook tablets. If I didn't see it myself, I wouldn't have believed it. It's amazing indeed.
