I was recently in my hometown of Concord, Massachusetts, where I did a book signing of “Doc Down Under” for the beautiful and historic Concord Public Library. It was a very humbling and personally moving experience, to be joining such a rarefied group of Concord authors, including Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Louisa May Alcott and Doris Kearns Goodwin. I’m a proud alumnus of CCHS Class of 1975. Many thanks to, Emily Smith, the Library Director, for her enthusiasm and support. Our second daughter, Cate, was also present for the event, which I will always hold dear.

I recently had a great interview with Ken Stearns, as he was traveling through Cooperstown, New York. He’s a soulful, patient interviewer and the questions from the jar covered a wide range of topics, many of a philosophical/ spiritual nature. We also discussed corporate and post corporate life, career burn-out and trying to live a more balanced, creative and reflective life. I was pleased that we had such an easy rapport, and there were no truly “cringey” moments. Please have a listen on Spotify or Amazon, and drop either of us a note if it was at all helpful or enlightening. Thanks!
