I’m ordering this now - grew up in Schenectady (Niskayuna) through age 12. Family (both sides) have been in Schenectady, Scotia, Troy since 1940s.

I guess I meant more so around Schenectady.. but I guess that’s half of the mystery. Expecting to read about a guy with face tattoos riding his dirtbike away from “a place beyond the pines” 😎

I just added the big t to my Christmas wish list. I’ve been meaning to circle back, but I’m excited to finally read it in physical form!

Hope all is well, Clancy!

Congrats! I'm really inspired by how you're doing this and it's making me want to stop querying and just do my own thing, too. Can't wait to hold a copy of this creation!

Yeah. I'm at the early stages myself, editing a first draft and there never seems to be enough time and everything written sucks. But it is nice to read success stories, just keep going!!
