News and Updates
“Black and Gold is available now in Hardcover and Trade paperback. I asked Nicole to video interview me talking about Black and Gold. The next mild day in November she filmed me at various locations. She did a nice job of it, cutting in stills and some video of other parts of Columbia – the video is on my homepage now. Interestingly, I found that as I wrote out my script for the interview and talked to the camera, I began to learn what the book was really about.” — Mike Trial
