Here’s Chapter 7 of No Relation, my new novel to be published by McClelland & Stewart on May 20, 2014. In this episode, Hem meets again with his therapist, and then gives Mario Andretti a rain-soaked driving lesson. Finally, as his writer’s block seems to worsen, he’s touched when his friends in the NameFame support group propose a rather intriguing solution.

Here’s Chapter 4 of No Relation, my new novel to be published by McClelland & Stewart on May 20, 2014. In this episode, Hem attends the gathering he’s organized with a little help from the New York Times Classifieds. You’ll meet several new characters in this chapter, and some of them have accents. I’m not very good at accents, so now would be a good time to lower your expectations. Hope you enjoy Chapter 4.

Welcome to Chapter 1 of the No Relation podcast. As I have with my other three novels, I’ll be podcasting No Relation chapter by chapter, one week at a time, until it’s finished.

No Relation is a comic novel about family, fame, identity, corporate espionage, and, oh yes, men’s underwear. I hope you like it. McClelland & Stewart will publish it in May, 2014.

In Chapter 1, we meet our narrator. Let’s just say he’s having a very bad day.

Well, this was to be the weekend I had hoped to post the first chapter of the No Relation podcast. Unfortunately, a head cold has thwarted my almighty schedule. My voice currently sounds like an odd hybrid of Tom Waits with a sore throat and Jabba the Hutt. So no Chapter 1 this weekend. Fingers crossed for next. Thanks for your patience…
