Sobre mimi read ten times as much as i write; it's a privilege i allow myself. i shudder sometimes when i see how much time generations from 30 years old down spend on television/computer screens. maybe that's why we're getting production type novels and writings now rather than what i like to call "delicious prose." (Capote, Koontz, are examples of the latter). i've published four books since 1990. I've been clean and sober since then, too. There is a correalation.

Sobre a minha bibliotecathis is my third library. the first was any book i could get ahold of and keep (5 through 16). the second was a collector library (23 - 52). Started this one at 60 and it only has works in it that i LOVE TO READ. Took me a long time to learn the simple truth that you are what you read.

i am writing no cap not because i am archie the cockroach but because this site often propells me elsewhere due to some finger hitting the wrong key

when you say you prefer chinese what do you mean?

do you mean some of the poems in sunshine splendor (the pond in a bowl and the feisty old guy's boasting most intrigued me -- or the rhymed selection by prof crump in songs of xanadu? or chinese mother goose which i translated with someone oin japan!? or?

to me, my books of mad poems (kyoka or kyouka) are both very chinese and folk-japanese as opposed to classic japanese as they are full of the sort of hyperlogical stuff you find in franklin or twain and certain chinese early-modern essayists

re the everglades, you better have m stoneman douglass's (sp?) comment on how her love for the glades she helped save was platonic ---------- i guess the smell and the cutting blades of sawgrass with the sting it makes when you walk in the water explains it or it may be the on the whole blah scenery as that described by ms trollop as she neared new orleans . . . forgive me, i love little swamps near the ocean but . . . rdg

Dear Andy Ray Campanaro,

What you wrote re poetry in the reader-writer group's anyone reading it? forum made me want to know what you think about the poetry i translate, largely in rhyme from japanese.

See what you think of the short version of Mad In Translation, "Kyoka, Japan's ..." which you can see 100% at Google Books.

And, my newest, A DOLPHIN IN THE WOODS -- the back cover, not up at Google, wonders why we cannot play with rhyme rather than crosswords -- makes an indirect arguement for poetry quite unlike the modern stuff.

I used to read a thousand times more than I wrote, but now probably write more than I read!

also in Florida, rdg

HI Andy,

I wanted to let you know that I never received your book zephyrs that I had won through the Member Giveaways. I was notified on April 7, 2009 that I had won. I just wanted you to know in case you were wondering why I have not reviewed your book. If you have any questions or concerns just leave me a comment on my profile.

Thanks,

Monica

Hey Andy,

Sorry that took so long but I just posted my review of your book In the Rooms. It was an intense but overall good read.

All the best,

Carson

Hey Andy,

I meant to send you a message when I received your book (which I got a few weeks ago) but never got around to it. I am pretty close to finishing it and you should expect a review soon. Thanks for getting this to me. So far it has been an experience to say the least.

All the best,

Carson

My dear Andy,

Muchas gracias for your kind comments. As for the question of style: you will certainly know that I said "it's none of their business that you have to learn how to write. Let them think you were born that way."

Look at the catalog comments for Islands in the Stream (as well as A Moveable Feast) to see why my friends at LT included these books.

Wishing you calm seas and fine fishing,
E.

Crews left a few years before I got there, around 1996 I think. Think he lives in Gainesville still though.

Hey Andy,

The book was published in paper format March 31st, and I've offered a number of reviewers the e-book version because I simply can't afford to send out hard copies. I've already sent out 100 for review, and the publisher has to charge me for the ones I send after that. You can purchase it on Amazon.com for $10.85. I'm really sorry. I wish I had physical copies to send.

Hi,

LibraryThing contacted me and indicated you were one of the winners of the Early Reviewer Giveaway. Please send me your e-mail address (mine is mail@christophertusa.com), and I'll send you a copy of the e-book.

Thanks for entering the giveaway,

Chris

when this feature began, you asked what week i would be available as being featured means the author has to respond to questions; talk to other members, and more. now the computer handles it, eh? well, if you don't program the computer to pick consecutively by alphabet, rather than randomly, chances are i (1) will never get the opportunity to be featured and (2) when i am, i wont know i am and miss it myself, which may alreqdy have happened. i think alphabetically is fair, eh?

I think we're talking about two different things here:
1. Featured authors. These are picked automatically by the computer, randomly, and put on the homepage for a day.
2. Author chat. Any author can sign up, and then respond to questions, talk to members, etc.

Did you want to sign up for an Author Chat?

Hey,

Just a quick note to let you know that my new novel, Dirty Little Angels, is now available. Thought you might like it since it's been compared to Harry Crews, whom I noticed you like. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Take care,

Thanks For the Suggestion. I will go get Angel City. I got on this old Florida kick after reading The Yearling. I just cant get enough of it. Do you know of any other authors who write on the subject?

I'd Love to write A review on A Land Remembered And South Moon Under, but you should'nt wait till I do to pick both of these books up, read them and add them to your collection. If you liked Cross Creek then South Moon Under will blow your mind. It is probally Rawlling's least technical work, being that it was her first. None the less, it is still, in my opinion, her second best book.
A Land Remembered is awesome! It follows a similar formula as South Moon Under, but the story is very different and more in depth.
If you want to read about the big scrub then these are two books you must have.

Hey there, I've been reading many books. True, I read easy fiction when I'm in a carefree mood, and if I'm down I'll read books about history or non fiction in general. I have to be in a good mood to read romance, especially hardcore romance.
I believe Walter Mosely said if you read fiction you'll have a better life.

Just finished reading A Candle in the Rain and enjoyed it very much. As a college student in Florida during the 1960s, I can confirm the veracity of your book, though I did not have the range or depth of Ilya's experiences. I ask that a novel hold my attention and make me think; yours did both of those for me, and its ending caught me totally by surprise.

Last week, I read Deep in the Heart by your mentor Wyatt Wyatt. Several years ago, I heard Wyatt mention that the book was constructed around the concept of a palindrome, or words to that effect. Having read the novel, I found it interesting to see how he actually worked it out in the novel but at the same time kept it from becoming a dry intellectual exercise. Like your book, his gives the sense of life with strong emotions and passions.

Thanks for suggesting these novels to me.
