How is this for my MIDNIGHT IN PURGATORY logline? A beautiful 38-year old widow and her prodigious 12-year old twins are invited to the small town of Purgatory to start a new life. Or so they think. What really happened here 18 years ago? What is about to happen again at the old cemetery on All Hallows Eve? Why are the locals playing with God? Does the ancient order known as ECHO really exist? Trust no one! Never accept a double-dare! And never, never ever open the ancient door that leads to heaven ... or is it hell? http://ping.fm/4DFpj

Even a monkey can write a book, but a good writer tells the story.

My book signing for The Glass Fence and Chasing God's River is today from 5-7pm at Poor Richard's Bookstore. 320 N. Tejon, Colorado Springs, CO. 80903. I think I'll read a chapter... At 7pm I will be across the street watching with the world as Tebow and the Broncos UPSET the Patriots! No bets, just a gut instinct.

Author Barry James Hickey competes with Tim Tebow and the Broncos on Saturday, January 14th.
