Thanks. What was the "great South African novel" about, Dennis? Sounds like it could be interesting. And what is the Hollywood script? Drama or sitcom? (We have enough sitcoms, in my opinion.) ;-)
Dennis, yeah,checking your book list, we do like a lot of the same writers. Spent too many years in LA, and was a member of Mystery Writers of America, so I got to meet many of the S. Cal writers and collected their books, and am doing the same now that I live in Key West (South, very South, Florida). Good luck with the Hollywood producer.
Thanks for the invite, Dennis. Congrats on the TV credits, most people would kill for that. You can get your novel published, no sweat. (Hey, I did, so anybody could.) But it's a BADDDDD addiction and man, show me the money...it ain't there.
Hi Dennis,
I'd love to help out on that porch... but it'll have to get in line behind the brick patio, room addition, remodeling of the kitchen and restoring of a very sad looking wood floor in my living room.
Thanks, Dennis! I think starting a new career so late was good for me. Made me feel younger and it was wonderful to learn new things. Maybe you'll feel like picking up your novel again soon. If not now, when?
Hi Dennis - Thanks for the welcome, it's really appreciated - much obliged, sir. Glad to see you're a Ken Bruen fan ... the guy is really putting Irish crime fiction on the map, and pretty much invented a whole new sub-genre in the process ... a great guy. Will be back once I get myself settled in, and thanks again, Dec
Yeah, R is fine...yeah, I moved here almost ten years ago (it'll be 10 next summer) finished high school and college here...went back home last christmas...it's awesome, you should try to go cuz each time i go back i remember what makes the Caribbean a great place to live.
Thanks so much re BUST, Dennis. Great to hear you enjoyed it!
Working with Ken on it was the best part, lots of laughs. We do a lot of the planning together, and then go back and forth ont he writing when we're apart. We write all the chapters together, and have a new one out.....SLIDE.....in October
Thank you again and talk soon
