Paul has written a book of poetry entitled Reasons Like Birds which is currently in submission to publishers.  Poems from this book have been published many journals, including Prairie Schooner, William and Mary Review, and Portland Review. 

The just-completed novel, currently titled Why Things Are the Way They Are, tells the story of one of the minor characters--mentioned only briefly in More Like Not Running Away, Harlan Lee Pendergraft, and takes place during World War II.  Readers of More Like Not Running Away will recognize Everest, who in this new novel is fourteen years old and--yes--accused of causing a man's death.

The next novel planned for completion (mostly written, but a couple of years from finished) is On Anegada, which takes place on the British Virgin Island of Anegada.  And that's all we know about that!  

Also in submission is The Shott Shepherd TransAmerican Free Ride, a memoir of a lost year on the way from the Marine Corps to the punk rock scene of southern California of 1980.
