Rye YMCA New Year's Resolutions

Ira Berkowitz, author of the acclaimed Sinner's Ball (just published)

After a very long hiatus,  my goal is to start working out regularly again.  Brendan Ahearn (Rye Y Fitness Center Director)  helped me set up an exercise routine in the Fitness Center and so far it has been terrific.

I resolved to get in shape so I can continue to write books for many more years.  Sinner's Ball is the 3rd book of the Jackson Steeg mystery series and I plan to write several more!
