There's a very interesting article on author Dean Koontz in the Australian. I'm in the middle of his latest book, "Life Expectancy", now.
Around 15 years ago my sister-in-law mailed him a fan letter; they've been corresponding ever since. I find it pretty remarkable that with his wealth and fame he'd be such a good penpal.
Nice guy.
Maybe one day he'll have a character in one of his books live in a cabin in the backwoods of Georgia and make Christmas tree ornaments for a living. He's got the material for it.
