Last night, I met up with Timothy Woodward at the Elephant Bar in the District in Las Vegas , Nevada . It was a beautiful evening in Sin City , made even more beautiful by the permanent smile on Tim’s face. He has signed with Deidre Knight of the Knight Agency in Madison , Georgia , and his novel, Purple Cow, will soon be coming to a bookstore near you. Way. To. Go.
Tim is a graduate of the Southern New Hampshire University MFA program in creative writing and Purple Cow is the project he completed during the program. It's a LGBT YA novel about coming out and finding first love in rural New Hampshire . The protagonist is a 16 year old boy that discovers support comes from unlikely places when you're gay in a place without a built in support network. It is being published by Kensington Books, which has a strong Gay/Lesbian Division and is a known commodity in LGBT publishing.

Congrats, brother. Nothing quite like the first. I look forward to the read. All best to you and yours ... and party, brother, you deserve it.
Congrats, man. I don't recall if we've met, or if I've just seen too many residency photos of you, but it's an exciting brush with greatness nonetheless. And speaking as a teacher who works with a lot of LGBT kids, I say more like this!
Outstanding news!
