He couldn't bring himself to sit down and tick off his life's milestones chronologically. So each day his secretary came in and took a couple hours' dictation of whatever was on his mind. Some days it was his childhood in Missouri, other days it was an article he'd read in that day's paper. Individual "chapters" are only three or four pages long. He figured that way the reader would get a much better sense of who he was, how he thought, and what was important to him. Generally, he was right (though some of his musings on late-19th-Century current events are slow sledding). Best of luck to you!Brian Fieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16347700145666751363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252129938551938631.post-81491289733322138522015-04-27T12:26:55.668-04:002015-04-27T12:26:55.668-04:00The Marvels magazine line!

You were in a hallway talking with a group of fans about the fact that going to cons was easier for writers than for artists, because everyone asks artists to draw something and no one says, "hey Tony, write me a story". On cue, three people held out paper and pen and said, "hey Tony, write me a story". <br /><br />Feel free to use that if you want. I look forward to the book!Rob Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03446323133240078358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252129938551938631.post-68260338710457012972015-04-27T11:13:38.711-04:002015-04-27T11:13:38.711-04:00Looking forward to thus, Tony!
