Thanks so much for leaving these ...Hey, Terrence--<br /><br />Thanks so much for leaving these kind remarks. I'm very happy that you liked the books, and #3 is (slowly) on the way. I love the story about Mailer's grave; with your permission, I might just steal it sometime. It's the kind of little in-joke that keeps me amused. If I drop it into a scene, I'll be sure to thank you in the acknowledgments.<br /><br />All best to you,<br /><br />JonJon Loomishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543395750851509611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018547881620329963.post-81484222431442824302010-07-12T17:14:08.362-05:002010-07-12T17:14:08.362-05:00I'll shut up after this.

Like a blue fish on an umbrella rig cast tween P-Town and...<br /><br />Wherever.<br /><br />tmTerrence McCarthyhttp://terrencemccarthy.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018547881620329963.post-17053972280034720252010-07-10T13:28:09.363-05:002010-07-10T13:28:09.363-05:00Almost done with " Mating Season." Look ...Almost done with " Mating Season." Look forward to reading other Frank Coffin mysteries. Nice job with this. P-Town is a place my wife and I really love and so much of your book hits responsive chords. The Mews. Shank Painter Road. Kunitz's place near The Red Inn.<br /><br />Last time I was in P-Town I visited Mailer's grave. Someone with a graveyard sense of irony had placed the jacket of a Gore Vidal collection of short stories on the ( very ) small marker. <br /><br />Keep these Coffin books coming. Great characters and you capture the town beautifully.Terrence McCarthyhttp://terrencemccarthy.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5018547881620329963.post-21159005180974707722010-07-08T10:57:10.504-05:002010-07-08T10:57:10.504-05:00Am reading Mating Season and enjoying it.

Sabbag writes for Rolling Stone and is the author of " Snow Blind " and " Down Around Midnight. " <br /><br />Mentioned you to Tom Lux ( Bourne Professor of Poetry at Georgia Tech )He knows of you, and has an Oberlin connection, too.<br /><br />My first book just published last month: " You Had to Be There - From Web Town To Psych Ward. " A memoir set, among other places, on the locked psych ward in Springfield where I worked for a spell.<br /><br />Good luck with your memoir. I'll be on the lookout.<br /><br />Terrence McCarthyTerrence McCarthyhttp://terrencemccarthy.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
