We have an author in our midst!

Jimmy Faggiana has published a book entitled The Portal. I'll copy his description below, but I could only find it on Books-A-Million, so maybe take advantage of the direct from the author discount. While looking for his book, I also discovered that Jim was on Who Wants to be a Millionaire and won 32K. What a talented guy! But Jim, if you did the New York Times crossword every day, you'd surely know that Midori plays the violin.

Edited. Here are the links:
Barnes & Noble
Amazon

Jim's comments:

My novel "The Portal" has finally been published, and is available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble in paperback. The eBook version will not be available for a few more weeks. Note that there are many other works of the same name - a rookie mistake by yours truly. Look for the yellow police tape on the cover. And mine is the best of all of them!

It is a science fiction/crime thriller, in the vein of Stephen King's "11/22/63" (but quite different!). At 538 pages, it took two years to write, and another 9 months to publish.

Interesting to note, I have used the names of many of my Division 1 teammates and friends as characters (all good guys or gals!) in the work - please enjoy your appearance if you find yourself.

I have several copies available at author's cost - just let me know if you're interested.

Please enjoy, and thank you for your interest.

Registration Update

Please click on the link at the top of this page, labeled "Registration", to sign up for the fall season of D1 softball. We will play at Saddlebrook and the season dates are September 2 through December 11, though exact game dates will be determined by the Board after registration ends on July 22. Please note that due to the necessity of creating a schedule, choosing managers, determining the number of teams, etc., this is a hard deadline. So register now. The draft will be held on Monday August 3 at the Fish Hawk recreational center at 6:00 pm.

The registration link has now been added to the hamburger menu for small screens (such as iPhone 12). You will now easily be able to register from your phone.

A list of current registrants can be found here. Updated periodically through registration close on July 22.
