Hi everybody!

Welcome to year two of my blog site! Year one was a smashing success, and I can't wait to broaden the scope of what I write.

At the beginning of 2022, I was a freelance writer, took a full-time job but am now looking at going back to freelancing before the end of the month. Follow the main page or any of my social media for my reporting.

Despite the Chuck Long Island moniker, I live in the Daytona Beach area with my girlfriend, Donna. I spent almost 55 years living on Long Island, NY, a great place but for the weather. I started writing when I lived there. That's why my social media is @chucklongisland.

Writing began because I had to if I wanted tenure at Long Island University-Brooklyn, NY. I met some awesome people there. A handful of academic articles and one book led me to try writing a novel, and that led to freelancing.

I've finished the manuscript for the novel mentioned above. It is about a musician, I am currently submitting it to agents and publishers. If you have a lead, send it my way!

I'll stop there because why drag it on? Besides, I gotta save something for the biopic. (JK!) But if you have a question, hmu.

These are a few of my favorite things that I am sure to blog on in 2023.
