What do Huckleberry Finn and Harry Potter have in common? At one time or another someone has tried to deny us the right to read them. How about Twilight or To Kill a Mockingbird? Same thing.
On the podcast the other night, my host Barry Eva had a little segment about the dangers of censorship. I added my 2-cents worth, which is unusual for me, because I see my self as a story-teller, not an activist.
Everyone here has a right to their opinions and because I respect that, I try not to not use this page as a platform for politics, but as an author, I take the censorship of books very seriously.
So, I’d like to mention to everyone that this is Banned Books Week, and I urge freedom lovers everywhere to go out and read a good book – preferable one of those that has been the subject of censorship.
Regards,
Tom

Day 3 of my virtual tour in support of fission finds me being interviewed for The Examiner.
Come see why I think fission is such an important story.

Day 2 of my virtual tour in support of fission has me returning to The Plot, where they reveal a recently discovered ‘Lost Chapter’ from fission - an Interview with Lise Meitner.
Then at 6:30 PM (USA-Eastern) I shall be a guest of Barry Eva on his show, A Book and a Chat with StoryHeart at Across The Pond. This is a live call-in show, made available to you wherever you live through the magic of internet podcasting, so if you can make it, I’d love to chat. This is a return engagement for me, so at the least I can promise that Barry will be witty and entertaining.
Hope to see you there.

Tom
Today is the first day of my virtual tour in support of fission.
I begin with a Guest Post at The Book Connection.
And then over at the The Plot, they are kind enough to feature an excerpt from the book as a preliminary to tomorrow, when they will publish fission – the lost chapter. I’m not even done writing it and already I’m losing parts of it – how sad is that?
Hope to see you there.

Tom
We uploaded Chapter 19 – Max- on September 20th.
Chapter 19 - Max: In the conclusion to Part 3 of fission, the War is lost and Lise returns from Lemberg.
Coming next in fission: Part 4 – Rise.
The war is over. The scientists have returned to Berlin. Nobel Prizes are handed out like candy. It should be the best of times, but in a broken and desolate post-war Germany, the evil that lurks in the shadows is about to Rise.
Chapter 20 of fission is coming soon.
Regards,
Tom
