Wrapping up 2019

It's time for me to take my end of year break and wrap up the first decade of WILD ABOUT HARRY. What a year 2019 has been! It all started with Houdini Last Secrets, moved into some wonderful Grim Game centennial celebrations, and ended with Joe Posnanski's new book. I also had a blast doing some historical deep dives, and my New Houdini Chronology is coming along nicely. And let's not forgot how we all got a shot at owning a piece of 278.

Have a safe and happy holiday season. I will see you all in 2020 for what will be WILD ABOUT HARRY's 10th year online!

    And you even threw in the song - I love it! Congratulations, John, and thank you again for all the inspiration, new knowledge, sharing, sleuthing, mystery, revelations, and above all, fun! (I also thanked you in the program for my show, but in the mad rush forgot to mention it.) Onward to the next decade, and Happy Holidays!!

      Thanks Jack! Thrilled to have you back in the Houdini blogosphere. Your Conjures Magazine series...wow. And know I already have a few Hardeen posts chambered and ready to go.

      Thanks. I spent my break, as I always do, researching and working on new blog posts. I never really take a break from HH. :)
