Piccirilli lets you know from the start that writing is serious business, but at the same time, the book is full of his offbeat, scathing humor.

Luck is about the worst thing that can happen in this biz, and it's no substitute for knowledge, experience, and skill." -Tom Piccirilli, from Welcome to Hell
Meeting the Black is a powerful and emotional piece written by Tom Piccirilli describing what he was going through, both mentally and physically, before and after his recent operation. 100% of the sales amounts of this and his other Crossroad Press titles, both eBook and audiobook, will continue to go to Tom to assist with his medical bills associated with his cancer treatment.
