My wife and I run Ig Publishing, an independent press based in Brooklyn, NY that publishes liberal/progressive nonfiction. Being loyal readers of Daily Kos, we discovered, early in 2005, a series of diaries on the site called Confessions of a Former Dittohead. The Confessions series detailed one man's transformation from a Rush Limbaugh-loving,gay-hating, pro-tax cutting, anti-abortion "dittohead" into a liberal Democrat. The diaries really struck a chord with us, and we thought that they would make an excellent book, so we got in touch with the author, whose name is Jim Derych, and now, a little over a year later, CONFESSIONS OF A FORMER DITTOHEAD, the book, is in stores.
