Dear Gretchen Stelter:

Last year LitVision Press published Bukowski Never Did This: A Year in the Life of an Underground Writer and His Family.

I cashed in an annuity I had rolled my retirement over into when the fiber-optic cable manufacturer I worked for laid me off and gave myself an LDA grant to drive around the Redneck Riviera promoting the book and write about doing that.

Last ditch attempt.

My grant is running out.

I am writing a book called READFEST 2006, about my high school class's 50th reunion, next year. After that, I'll have to go back to work.

I enclose Description of READFEST 2006, Progress and Status Report: LDA Grant, reporting what I have done in the past year, and the first 22 pages of READFEST 2006.

Would you like to see the completed manuscript, when done?
