    Hey Tom, those 2 books you mentioned that will be coming out--both are books I would love to read! Just a little aside: I still have the waiver that an Elvis impersonator pulled out of his trunk. It was basically a form that would prevent anyone from making fun of him. That totally cracked me up.
    Hey, I tried to find your book Pullers at Barbara's Bookstore in Oak Park over the weekend. No luck--will try here in Madison at Borders.
    ps. Would love to see your photos. I'm an art director that works with photographers and illustrators and ALWAYS love to see new images.

    Gore Vidal, Paul Theroux, Harry Crews - wow, it sounds like my shelf if I ever got around to actually updating it. Loved Paul Theroux's Slow Boat to China and the Patagonian Express - which brings me to Bruce Chatwin, the other brilliant travel writer (Songlines). Please enlighten me on the title of the book you mentioned in your note and I'll order a copy. Have you read Larry Brown?

    appreciated your first note and am thinking about getting your book, but now two pretty much the same in less than 3 days? Seems like SPAM to me. Be careful, you could piss some people off.

    Tom,
    I will look for your book. Thanks...I'm sure I'll like it if Harry Crews did!
    Best from your fellow writer,
    Barbary Chaapel

    Hey Tom,
    Thanks so much for the note. I will definitely look for your book! Did you submit your book for Crews to read or do you know him? That guy is such a character. A relative of mine shot a documentary about Harry Crews and I have yet to see it. I love his interviews though--at least the ones I've scrounged all over for. This is so exciting--a new book to read! Good luck with your book! c

    Thanks for the suggestion of your book, Tom. I saw it on Amazon and agree that it looks exactly like the kind of novel I'd enjoy reading.
