Good going cuz. I read the Gadsden Times' article about your success and I just want to say "congratulations". Your website also looks good and your "Christmas" story is moving. I also am a fan of John Grisham and Stephen King. We moved back home to Gadsden from Estes Park, Colorado where King did most of his writing on "The Shining" and where the television mini-series was made at The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, less than a mile from our condo there. I had always loved The Shining, and to be able to actually go into the hotel where it had it's origins and to be where the movie was filmed was quite awesome. Of course, in the movie, the hotel is named The Overlook and appears to be in the middle of nowhere. But due to the magic of film-making, you would never know that there's a Safeway Grocery, Starbucks, McDonald's, Subway and numerous other businesses in front of that hotel. Some good friends of ours from there were extras in the movie.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading your writings and will likely tell my wife and sons that is on my "wish list" for Christmas. When they (or I) order something from you, I hope you'll autograph it.
Again, congratulations and God bless.
Stan Cook
P.S. I'm going to send an email to you to catch up since we've not seen each other since your grandmother's funeral on Christmas Eve about a decade ago.
