"A Society of One"

I am editing the very funny pages of the second book in K.C. Bacon's The New Rotterdam Trilogy.  This book follows the artist Selden in New Rotterdam as he copes with women and other friends and enemies who may or may not understand his vision of himself as "a society of one."

Selden speaks to the commitment of the artist to his work of course, and what he must do to preserve it. Yet this is a farce, and so Bacon's artist must learn that he is not alone in the world, that even in a society of one others matter.

Such as his would-be girlfriend, Christina, and best friend Curley.

The author has the story, flow and tone of this down pat.

It is a pleasure to read and work with material like this.

The Trilogy will appear sometime this summer.
