I have good news for readers who know me more as an author than a blogger or columnist. For the last several months, I have been writing a book, which will be my fifth. Even before I officially started on it, I had been writing on the subject, which, thank God, is far afield from my more political work. Writing a book on politics would be masochistic during this depressing moment. But moments pass. At some point soon in the new year I will reveal the topic and title. Expect the book to come out in the second half of next year. Hopefully, people will still read books then. Regnery is the publisher.

Looking forward to it, Dan.

Is it going to be about cheap beer?
