Sat down this morning with a cup of coffee, a slice of mincemeat pie and a big chunk of the book this blog’s named after, 50 Westerns From The 50s. And with the year coming to an end, it kinda made sense to let y’all know what’s going on with this thing.
Started working on 50 Westerns From The 50s in August of 2009. This blog cranked up a couple months later. I had absolutely no idea that 16 years later, I’d still be working on this thing. Embarrassing.
But it’s getting close. Every chapter’s been written; some are more written than others. Have more than the prescribed 50 Westerns, giving me the chance to ditch some things that don’t make the grade. There are a handful of things needing more research, and I’m still trying to track down a better copy of one film.
There’s a target publishing date, but I’m not gonna share it just yet. Missed enough of them already. I’ve put all my other writing things on hold till this one’s done. Juggling three movie books and a rather lame attempt at a novel doesn’t move anything along too quickly.
Thank you for your patience along the way. I hope it’ll be worth the wait.
