A (Surprise) Review

Much to my surprise, a review appeared on Amazon for my recently self-published collection of essays, Crossing the Meadow.  I certainly didn’t expect it but here it is.  (Thank you, Jim!)

Imagine you’re flying from the West Coast to London. It’s a very long flight, and you can’t get to sleep. The passenger sitting next to you strikes up a conversation. He is a very interesting man who has led a very interesting life. He tells you about his life as a screenwriter, and his experience with movie stars, He is a novelist now and discusses the creative process. But you learn he has the same problems, hopes, and dreams that you do.. Some of his stories make you laugh, some make you cry. Before you know it, you are landing at Heathrow. Where did the time go?  That’s what this book is like — a conversation, perhaps the best conversation you ever had. I read it in a day.

Crossing the Meadow is available on Amazon:
