Thanks Charles for a really interesting and inspiring newsletter. So good to hear about both Joe's and Carter's writing and subsequent book publishing. Hope for us all!

I keep toying with the idea of putting a book together about the concept house concerts, the how-to's and practical side of putting one or a series together. Just not sure that there would be much of a market though.

Love gettibng your newsletters though. Please say hi to "The Floods" for me. :-)

Aw, Colin, so glad you enjoyed the article, old friend. And let me urge you to pursue those book dreams. No guarantee, of course, that there's an eager readership waiting for the story, but you know, honestly, after our shared Covid experiences, I get the feeling that people are more eager than ever for old-fashioned handmade, homemade music, the essence of people-reaching-people. The timing might just be perfect! :)

Thanks Charles. The audiences at Grateful Fred's are now growing steadily after the "great unpleasantness", that's for sure. So maybe it's time to bite the bullet. I've been using Chatgpt to outline the book and so it's now about fleshing the chapters out with my own experiences garnered over the last 13 years.
