FOR GODS AND FOR MEN

JAMES R. JOHNSON

It's great that Faye has so much business rolling.  And the offer is exciting news.  I agree completely with your recommendations.  I say we go for that tentative acceptance of the Delizon deal and see what the next few weeks bring.  Tell Faye she has my complete confidence and I am grateful and appreciative of all her hard work. 

And, yes, it is my first completed novel... soon to be published!!  Thanks for everything.

THE LAST WARLORD: A TRUE STORY OF LOVE, BETRAYAL, AND TERRORISM IN AFGHANISTAN

BRIAN WILLIAMS

That's great news on Chicago Review Press, and the October 15 deadline is imminently doable for me as I am off all summer and only teach two days a week during the regular fall semester.  And that's interesting about Little, Brown and the interest in another book proposal.  I would love to hear more.  And I am thrilled to hear about the 2013 date as you can imagine.  I will do everything to make that work.  I would be delighted to speak with them. 

Engines full throttle!

THEY CALL ME DOC: THE STORY BEHIND THE LEGEND OF JOHN HENRY HOLLIDAY

D. J. HERDA

I have been "blessed" with six agents in my life.  Two were great, three were less than great, and the sixth was the best.  I owe my success as a full-time freelance writer to Faye Swetky and the job she has done in building up The Swetky Literary Agency and my own literary career.  She is simply the best. - D. J. Herda
