Family Maintenance
Later, George is sound asleep in Andy’s favorite recliner, feet up, as the game on TV plays on. The phone rings, waking him up, so he answers.

Self-Doubt
Like so many of us, I have always struggled with self-doubt and low self-esteem. For whatever reason, I don’t typically expect others to take interest in me, or expect them to value my thoughts or feelings when shared. This doesn’t bode well when publishing a book about your innermost demons and...

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NOW AND THE 70's
This is what I mean by how different society was back in the 70’s - much looser. Society now is WAY too corporate and tight-ass.

British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
