First contact!

          I think I got my first book published around 1985. My first radio play was broadcast around 1981. Just once, someone wrote me a letter about one of my radio plays. No one has ever contacted me about a novel ever. There have been reviews. That was it until I looked at my seldom used Hotmail account yesterday. Someone sent me an email. They said it was okay to reproduce it, so here it is.
           

Did you really write Are you boys cyclists? It's one of my favourite books. I bought it years ago when I had lots of money and I had a phase of just buying books randomly, judging them by their covers. I don't do that any more as I don't have any money. But I loved your book. I just recommended it to an old friend, so I googled it and found your blog. I like they way you write. But you don't write it any more.

So what are you doing now? Any more books?

Cheers,

Ivan

Much better than someone telling you to go and take a flying ....
