Searching for Jimmy Page Takes Flight!
Searching for Jimmy Page has officially taken flight! How fortuitous that this book should lift off on the night of the 2021 Hunter’s Moon—fortuitous and not a little uncanny.
Three Weeks To Go!
The Rock ‘N Roll Clock is ticking! My debut novel from Livingston Press, Searching for Jimmy Page, will be released in exactly three weeks, October 20, 2021. It’s the story I was always meant to tell, the one that is a love song to Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin and, to my knowledge, the first literary novel (as opposed to fan fiction or nonfiction) that features them, but it is also an homage to my mother, Frances Baker Alexander. Today I honor her memory, on this eighteenth anniversary of her passing.
One Month To Go!!!!

Searching For Bonzo’s Grave
Happy March 3, 2021! I hope all is well with you as we venture toward the Ides of March, the vernal equinox, then on to the full Worm Moon at the end of the month. Not that I’m superstitious or anything, but as the Kidderminster taxi driver in my forthcoming novel, Searching For Jimmy Page, proclaims to eighteen-year-old protagonist Luna Kane as she transports Luna to the cemetery where Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, aka Bonzo, was laid to rest in 1980, “They say people go barking mad on a full moon.”
