Just printed it out. Final manuscript type set and formatted–just as the book will look. Goes now to page proofs. For the next three days I am going to read it aloud…every word–as a FINAL ultimate check. Just to see what might have been missed by two professional copyeditors who went through twice–once after I had offered my first pass input!
Out September 30th with Knopf Publishing, NY. It can be preordered on Amazon to be received that day. Here is the link: https://amzn.to/3DfIVyP
Just try gazing into THOSE eyes, and that expression, and you will feel the depths. There is no book like this so far as I know–very much the first in a new endeavor: The Quest for the Historical Mary. Whether I am right or wrong on this or that, I hope at least I have helped initiate things, and that and others with alternative perspectives will join the cause. Let’s give this amazing Jewish woman here life back, widowed, and raising eight children, in one of the most troubled times of Roman imperialism. She has been robbed of her womanhood, her sexuality, her motherhood, her religion of Judaism–and yes, her children! And at least two of those–Jesus and James–have transformed our world more than any two brothers in history.
Stay tuned!
