Hi! I love re-reading books, and I've cycled back to Vic Tanzi--thanks for the fun! I just read the article about you in the Valley News, and noted that we both were involved with AFS (my family had a German student), I also went to Middlebury College as a Spanish Major, and I'm betting you also had John Clagett for a class or two in creative writing ...? I'm a native Vermonter, and love reading books set in Vermont.

Thanks Marna! My favorite writing teacher in college was Barry Hannah, who taught me to just get words on paper and not worry too much--there will be plenty of time to (obsessively) edit later. He was right.

I thoroughly enjoyed Tanzi's Heat. I noticed your book is perfectly edited - a rarity today. I hope you don't mind I'm sharing some comments: 1. Worse than that was that I had thought that Barbara (a lot of thats in a row). 2. I zipped up and returned to the kitchen. (? ewww - please wash your hands.) 3. I got a shower... (My husband's Italian - I got a shower is so Italian. Instead of I took a shower) XO
