I HAVE WANTED TO WRITE FOR QUITE SOME TIME. At this moment I am siting at a rehearsal of a medieval minstrel group, Fracta Modi, in which my wife plays recorder. I WAS JUST TELLING A YOUNG MAN ABOUT YOUR MANY BOOKS, ALL OF WHICH I HAVE READ WITH GREAT ENJOYMENT. So I thought tonight would be as good a time as any to write you a thank you note. I live in West Barnstable and I hope to catch at least one of your theater performances this summer to see how your acting compares to your great talent as a novelist Again, I thank you for the pleasure you have given me with your books. BEST REGARDS, JACK BECHTOLD
