I suppose it’s that my body sits here typing away and answering the occasional phone call while my mind gallops off to do the interesting stuff.<br /><br />Jean, I hope it turns out to be worth the wait.<br /><br />And, since I now know there’s a way of reading Kindle things, I’ll be getting your book right away. You do keep trying to drag me into the 21st century, don’t you?Bill Kirtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07675643113010061969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-387052581086893410.post-55900282981705506602010-07-09T16:23:37.289+01:002010-07-09T16:23:37.289+01:00Bill, The Figurehead finally arrived and I have it...Bill, The Figurehead finally arrived and I have it at the top of my to-read pile at my bedside. I'm anxious to dive in. :)<br /><br />As for the Kindle edition of Mysterious Writers, you can download it onto your computer and print it if you don't have a Kindle reader. The print edition is uncertain at this time.Jean Henry Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146960738692672013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-387052581086893410.post-29035393713866605372010-07-09T13:41:47.169+01:002010-07-09T13:41:47.169+01:00Congratulations on the many things that are happen...Congratulations on the many things that are happening in your life.

I've never had so much fun as when I go up against the wit [and wisdom and really stunningly superior vocabulary] of you and Donnie Ross. The insanity, the improv nature of the writing, really gets those creative juices flowing. I eagerly await the next edition.DragonLadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06381441468998574063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-387052581086893410.post-24201039787695257462010-07-04T22:48:08.817+01:002010-07-04T22:48:08.817+01:00OK, Marley.

It's amazing that they're not an endangered species. :)Jean Henry Meadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08146960738692672013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-387052581086893410.post-19410321342535741502010-07-02T10:24:07.154+01:002010-07-02T10:24:07.154+01:00I've never seen a salmon achieve the top of a ...I've never seen a salmon achieve the top of a waterfall either, Bill.
