new book

The Charlie book, And for All the Sins I Cannot Recall, is in proofing now! At last. This memoir was sent to me 21 years ago and I put it away, almost forever. It’s been a work of deep nostalgia and was a far more emotional experience then I had anticipated. My darling bro, who passed away young, at 48, was a great story teller. We all knew that. But who’d a thunk he’d be so good at writing also? This collection of vignettes is his one and only written work. Before white privilege, before Gay Lib, before AIDS, before dropping out of college, before avoiding the draft, he starts the tale and takes us up to his circumstances in 1995. It’s a page turner with considerable humor. The Epilogue sketches in what happened after he became too ill to write.

            If you’re interested in the read, my website will offer the best price and the books will be signed by me, his editor. www.merimeemoffitt.com  See “Books by Merimee” in the menu. All proceeds after expenses will go to Gay Men’s Health Crisis and amfAR, the Foundation for Aids Research.
