A friend in Desert Hot Springs, California, bought my book. Yea! Then a few weeks later, Larry wrote to ask if he sent the book to me, would I return it with an autograph. I agreed, then immediately changed my mind. “How about you donate your copy to the local library?” I asked. “I’ll just sign another copy and send it to you.” And that, folks, is how I got my book on a shelf of the Desert Hot Springs Library!

Larry and I had lost touch — long before graduation from high school, which, if my math is right, was forty-one years ago. Then a few years back he and his wife, Barbara Weber, came to visit Larry’s mother. He gave me a phone call and we had a couple of meals together. Since then we’ve kept in touch by email. You can check out his website and that of his wife.
