Writing and Rent Paying.

    Well I have not yet hit the lottery so I still have to have rent paying jobs.  Just have to figure out what Mikey wants to do when he grows up other than write.

I would say I am the next Nora Roberts (except she is prettier and I got a late start).

I’ll post more about the writing game and what is involved.

My Upcoming Book

The book is coming out later in 2007. The subject is Sherlock Holmes nemesis Professor Moriarty from Moriarty’s point of view. I am editing the chapters now and should be done by April.

Only two of the sixty Conan Doyle stories mention Moriarty in detail. In others, Moriarty is the vague “Napoleon of Crime.” I have made my character a product of Ireland in An Gorta Morta, Gaelic for the Great Hunger or the Potato Famine.

I have some musings about this already on a blog

It contains some links about things I cover. It is the publicity I am working on as well.

Who in the World is Michael Charton and Why Does He Need a Blog?

Well allow me to introduce myself.  My name is Michael Charton.  I am a writer with one travel article just published and my first book coming out later this year.  I stumbled into the writing game.  It is all very exciting.

I also provide public speaking coaching.  I joined Toastmasters in January, 1991 because I needed it.  Everyone has something to say and I enjoy bringing it out of people.

You will see more postings as we go.

Cheers

Michael
