The title and subtitle for the work I called Swimming in the Shadow of Death have been selected by the marketing folks at Lyons Press. There seems to be a consensus that they are good choices. Here they are:
Eight Survived: The Harrowing Story of the U.S.S. Flier and the Only Downed World War II Submariners to Survive and Evade Capture.
In two weeks, we should have the editing wrapped up (The contract requires it.) Then it will be another seven or eight months before publication. You can expect the book to be available in September, I think.
Meanwhile, I'll be studying youth fiction in an attempt to hone the prose in Leaving Harwich. I've already finished a couple of youth novels and am re-reading them as part of that study. This is actually fun. Brain-stretching can be entertaining.
