DAY ONE is out!


Happy Book Release Day to Bill Cameron!

In honor of this joyous occasion, I've written a poem about the thing Bill loves best in all the world.

*clears throat*

BACON: A POEM (with apologies to Joyce Kilmer)

I think that I shall never eat
A food as yummy as this meat.

Bacon fried, so crisp and salty,
(Try it with a choc'late malty!)

Porky goodness upon my plate,
Awaiting there, my yen to sate.

And, lo, my eager mouth is prest
Against the thing that I love best.

If only I could make it last!
Alas, it's disappearing fast.

Breakfast splendor inhaled by me,
Bacon is better than a tree!


Now, if that doesn't inspire you to go buy a copy of DAY ONE, I don't know what will. ;)

    And, lo, my eager mouth is prest
    Against the thing that I love best.
