I do love me some remix.
In 2014 I re-mixed my
1998 motorcycle story, Extreme Unction, with some select parts of my UPI
column/2009 book, So There I was… , added in a healthy dose of fresh, wrapped
it in a Buerkle cover, and called it Miracle
Motors: A pert Near True Story.
This left me with a partially gutted STIW, an out-of- print
STIW in Africa, and a bunch of worthy blog posts from 2010-1015. I have taken
these things, written another healthy dose of fresh, and wrapped it in another
beautiful Buerkle cover.
But the new thing is not just a conglom.
Remix is a dynamic thinking process. It helps me to find the
threads of truth and beauty in divergent sources. During the last two years of
work on this project, I have named my charism, found the threads of that theme
in my extant writing and then fleshed it out.
If Miracles Motors describes my faith and how I came to it, then this new book describes my practice, and how I think it can be replicated.
I give to you…
