Autumn!: The Perfect Time for Reading The Forgotten Liars !

We are as clouds that veil the midnight moon;
How restlessly they speed, and gleam, and quiver,
Streaking the darkness radiantly! — yet soon
Night closes round, and they are lost for ever:
(Quote from " Mutability ," by Percy Bysshe Shelley)

The Forgotten Liars ( Xlibris , 2004)

Back in the days when New York City was still dangerous, dirty, and romantic— back in the days of punk rock, Thai stick, and Checker cabs— sometime in September in the late afternoon (or perhaps the very early morning)— Billy McEwan met Tammi Honig...

Thanks to the good folks at Columbia's BWOG, my site got a lot of hits from Columbia.edu IP addresses after an August 30, 2008 article entitled "Alumni— They Do Stuff." Some of you may be interested in my half-dozen excerpts from my novel "The Forgotten Liars," each of which is set at a specific location on Morningside Heights:

Timothy Horrigan, Author of The Forgotten Liars

I am running for office this fall, and here is an advertisement for myself:

Timothy Horrigan for NH State Representative

Strafford County District 7; Durham, Lee & Madbury

My name is Tim Horrigan. I am running as a Democrat for the open seat in the New Hampshire General Court for Durham, Lee and Madbury. Some of my priorities as a candidate are:

Preserving our natural enviroment and conserving our natural resources.
Transforming Durham, Lee and Madbury— and all of New Hampshire— into sustainable communities. We need to build communities for our post-Big Oil future.
Fixing the educational system: I will fight to scrap "No Child Left Behind" and restructure our state's schools so they start educating our students rather than training them to fill in bubbles on test booklets. I support universal kindergarten, and I will keep our world-class higher education system world-class
Fixing the tax system: I will help build a tax system which ensures adequate and fair funding for education and other services in every town in the state.
Building a 21^st Century telecommunications infrastructure: I will make sure that the state has affordable, high-quality broadband access
Building a 21^st Century transportation infrastructure: this includes public transportation as well as roads and bridges,
Protecting our personal freedoms and the rule of law.

My background is: I moved to Durham when I was 10 and have lived in New Hampshire most of my life. I attended the Oyster River Schools before graduating from Columbia University and the University of Southern California, earning masters degrees in English and Marketing. I have spent most of my career in information technology. During the current election cycle, I have volunteered for the Edwards campaign, Democracy for America and MoveOn.org. If elected, I would be carrying on a family tradition: my father Jim Horrigan represented this district for several terms in the 1970s.
