As I mentioned in previous posts, this blog is moving to a new domain. That new domain is now up and running. You can get there from here. The new site is on a different server and has my name – ken-mcconnell. This is an attempt to capitalize on future brand awareness.

I was quoted in a local paper today.
“The people that work [at Rediscovered] really know books very well. They’re not afraid to talk up the local authors,” says McConnell. “That helps me as a writer who lives here, and it can only help the community to get to know those writers that do live here.”
