I’ll never forget the first time I walked into a library. I was just a little kid and we were visiting the town of Blue Point, Long Island. It was a warm summer evening and it was just a little library, one floor. When we walked in the smell of paper and glue wafted up and I was hooked. More than fifty years later I began collecting books that had that same wonderful smell. Other visits to the NYC area included stops at the most wonderful places that had a soda fountain and racks and racks of paperbacks. Again, WONDERFUL smells.

Ten percent of the writers write fifty percent of the books.

Please don’t tell him that many were written by ghostwriters. Not until Halloween anyway.

No.. those are just copies, printed by some company from something the author wrote and got paid peanuts for.

I’m sure they farmed it out to other authors.
