As you can see, I’m on a western kick lately.
And I thought my haul from New York City was big.
Though two of the books I bought because I knew I’d be spending time with the authors later.
I thought you said you were getting it on with pornographic romance novels, heavy on Chaucerian verbage, which includes but is not limited words that sound like ‘punt’.
JIm,
That’s why I bought the first edition of NORTH OF MONTANA…I know I’ll run into April Smith at an LA event sometime (perhaps the Festival of Books) or next tiem she has a signing. I often buy books with an eye towards having them signed in the future.
