A whopping four years have passed since the publication of my monumental article in July of 2019, though really, it’s more of a novella. Where has the time gone? I can still recall the hot summer day lounging alongside Dordogne River in France when I received the news, that Patricia had decided to let her potatoes cool off, and the underground wine cellar in a walled medieval village by which I conducted our interview, all as if it transpired yesterday. The article-novella which followed quickly went down as the most read publication of my writing career, and probably still continues to be, despite my smorgasbord of research material. And so, you may or may not be happy to know that I’ve opened up the vaults and extended the article somewhat. The latest iteration includes contributions from David Weiss, Bob Knodel, and Mark Sargent, all of whom I interviewed that summer. We’ll just call this one the director’s cut.

There are two ways in which you can read the latest expansion. One is by purchasing the July 2023 issue of TUC Magazine, in which it is featured. Finding it for sale on the bookshelf is the easy part. I just linked you to it. The other way is by downloading the PDF. You can sign up for TUC Membership as well as our monthly book releases by clicking that shiny turquoise button above. Of course, here [TUC MEMBERSHIP] is a link for your convenience. Or if you prefer, you can always feed the thirsty kitty below. So many ways to join!

Afterwards, ‘Everything That Was Beautiful Became Ugly: Leaving Flat Earth with Patricia Steere’ as well as my entire ARCHIVES of material is available for your reading and viewing pleasure here.
