\"A<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

As I said in my February Newsletter, I have finished my book, titled Radiant Angel<\/em>, and it will be released on May 26. You can read Chapters 1 and 2 for free by clicking here<\/a>. If you like what you read, you can the book now, as I\u2019ve already done.<\/p>\n

Winter is still hanging on here in the Northern Hemisphere, and if you\u2019re like me, this is a good time to go to garage sales and buy books written by other authors and throw them in the fireplace. The pages burn well, and the binding glue really puts out a lot of heat. Burning other authors\u2019 books warms not only my feet, but also my heart.<\/p>\n

Just kidding, of course. And here\u2019s a book you should buy and read and keep on your bookshelf: Wine in Words: Notes for Better Drinking<\/em><\/a> by my pal, Lettie Teague. Lettie is the wine columnist for The Wall Street Journal<\/em>, and if you\u2019ve ever read any of her columns you know that she knows her vino, and her writing is both informative and entertaining. As I wrote in my review, \u201cLettie Teague has written the first and only wine book I could read from beginning to end without getting a hangover.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wine in Words<\/em> is available in bookstores on April 21 and can be pre-ordered now.<\/p>\n

In my last Newsletter I recommended, The Mystery Writers of America Cookbook: Wickedly Good Meals and Desserts to Die For<\/em><\/a>, to be published on March 24. I have contributed my secret recipe for pigs in the blanket, John Corey\u2019s favorite food. For more information, click here<\/a>. Proceeds from this book supports the Mystery Writers of America.<\/p>\n

Also in my last Newsletter, I said that I\u2019d have some updates on film, and what I\u2019m doing for my next book. Well, no news from Hollywood, though the manuscript for Radiant Angel<\/em> is being sent out to major studios and producers. As for my next book, I\u2019m still developing a few ideas for a new series and a new character.<\/p>\n

March 17 is St. Patrick\u2019s Day, which is celebrated in a big way in New York City and other cities around the country. Last year my family and I were invited by Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York, to join him for Mass at St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral and breakfast at the Cardinal\u2019s residence. After a good Irish breakfast we watched the parade on Fifth Avenue from the steps of St. Pat\u2019s, then had lunch at the Cardinal\u2019s residence. It was a great day and I\u2019ve been invited again, meaning His Eminence didn\u2019t notice the missing silverware.<\/p>\n

But if you want to know what can go really wrong on St. Patrick\u2019s Day in New York during the parade, read my novel, Cathedral<\/em><\/a>. All my royalties from Cathedral<\/em> go to the St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral Restoration Fund<\/a>, so buy this book, go to heaven. Simple.<\/p>\n

I want to thank all of you who have emailed me through my website and assure you that I read every letter. I wish I could reply personally, but if I did, my next book would be two years late. So please accept this Newsletter as my acknowledgement of your nice letters.<\/p>\n

And finally, Passover and Easter are early this year, so I\u2019ll use this March Newsletter to wish everyone of both faiths a happy and blessed holiday. Don\u2019t eat too much.<\/p>\n
