I apologize for being away from my blog for the past few weeks. I have a deadline with my publisher for submitting the manuscript for my second book, and I'd say it'll be here before I know it, but I know full well that huge monster is putting a warm, stinky breath on my collar line right now. So, almost all writing I do is work related. It's also limited my golf, but that's another matter.

I guess I've been busy enough that I'm late in coming to the party of reading the "Golf Saved My Life" essays that have been printed in Golf Digest. Read them! You'll feel justified in your participation in the game, even if others continue to condescend.
