Another book review and a list, too

March 7, 2009

Another tax blogger, Jim Maule who authors MauledAgain, has done me the honor of reading and reviewing my book, The Truth About Paying Fewer Taxes.

I certainly appreciate the assessment of my book by Maule, who is a professor at Villanova University School of Law. And I got a particular kick out of two of Prof. Maule's observations:

"The truth is
that this book is not a tax protester tome,
as the title
might suggest."

and

"It's a small book, and because
it doesn't focus
on taxes other than income taxes
or jurisdictions other than the United
States,
one must wonder if a series of
'The Truth About Paying Fewer
[insert state name here] Taxes'
is contemplated by the publisher."

The thought of anti-tax wingnut picking up a copy of my book and being disappointed brought a smile to my face.

The idea that this could be a long-running gig brought a smile to the hubby's face. He's always looking for a way to be a kept man. I've come up woefully short so far, but he thinks there's a lot of potential here.

He's poking around my office now, looking for my publisher's phone number.

More from Maule: Last week was a very good one for me, in large part due to the efforts of Prof. Maule.

In addition to reviewing The Truth About Paying Fewer Taxes, Prof. Maule also submitted the top 10 tax blogs in his world.

The list was for Blogs.com and I'm pleased to reported I made the cut.

Yep, it definitely looks like Prof. Maule is getting added to my Christmas card list!

Tax Season 2026 Continues!

We made it. Tax Day 2025 is finally over. For most of us. When the filing season started on Jan. 26, millions who were expecting refunds filed immediately. Most of us got our returns to the Internal Revenue Service by April 15. But plenty of taxpayers also got extensions. They are looking at an Oct. 15 filing deadline.

Those procrastinating filers aren’t a problem. In fact, the IRS appreciates taxpayers who take time to fill out their 1040 forms correctly. It also is grateful that tax submissions are spread out a bit, especially now that the IRS is a leaner agency. Processing returns is easier when they arrive throughout the year instead of in massive bunches.

But enough about Uncle Sam’s tax collection issues. The focus now is on all y’all who filed for extensions, giving you another six months to complete your return. Since your new mid-October due date will be here before you know it, let’s get started now on meeting it.

The ol’ blog is here to help you finish up your extended Form 1040. You can start with January’s tax tips page, which has links to the rest of the year’s tips by-month collections. You also can peruse various tax categories for more tailored advice by clicking on the More Tax Posts drop-down menu at the top of this (and every) page.

And to make sure you don’t miss your new filing deadline, the count-down clock below will let you know just how much time you to file by Oct. 15. At the latest.e. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)

Congrats!
I bet most of the people are going to assume that whatever the ‘Truth About Paying Fewer Taxes’ is, it’s going to confirm their assumptions. Good move.
