Big Fat Book

Photo from a reader, with accompanying note:

In the summer afternoons, you might find me sitting on the boat reading.  It is usually one of your books.  Thank you.

Now, this past summer I forgot where (I like to say “lost”) your “Man Working” book.  I found it on the boat after the “great rainstorm”…….Being the frugal (cheap) person that I am, I saved it.  Each day for many days I turned to another group of pages, while the book was on top of the wood stove…..  It worked.  

The book is now twice as thick.  I guess there was more hidden knowledge than the paper could handle?

A reader who rescues your book, page by page? Every writer’s dream.
