    Howdy. If you like Harry Crews' stuff you might also like my book Pullers. Harry himself gave me a plug on the book jacket. Best to you. -- Tom Graves

    Hi, Barbary. I'm finally putting up my books on the shelf, mainly titles that might be helpful in developing pre Simulationist themes for poets,essayists and visual artists in our movement. A lot of stuff on consciousness, imaginal worlds, simulation versus representation, but also quite a few excellent anthologies of poetry and collected works of poets I read often.
    I look forward to perusing your bookshelf and exchanging comments from time to time.
    I hope you are feeling better, my dear!

    Hi, Barbary,
    Is your last name Coast? Just joking. Thanks for commenting on my Author Review Chat. I see you've written a few books yourself; I'll check your website asap.
    Meanwhile, I've invited you to be my Shelfari Friend. I hope you accept.

    I enjoyed reading the review and then having my questions answered. I had another question for you, but by the time I was able to get on a computer and post it I had forgotten what it was. :(

    I really enjoyed the author chat, too! Your experience is one my hubby & I have thought of doing. We did "escape" the real world & were fortunate enough to live on a small island in the Caribbean for several years, so I understand what it was like to leave everything behind, although your experience was much more dramatic! LOL I wish you so much good fortune w/ your writing!
