Re: Dan Hughes novel coming out

Good for him. I know I haven't spent MY spare time writing a novel. 

My big plan for today is picking up a check from the consignment store and cashing it.

 

I'm always happy when someone achieves a goal.  Again, good for him.

 

 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Re: Dan Hughes novel coming out

A "fictionalized version of a true story" - always makes me wonder how much of the story is actually true, or how close the story hews to truth.  I'd rather read a true account of what happened than a fictionalized version.

There are a number of nonfiction articles about the event, "The Kidnaping of the Lunic" available on line, such as a detailed accounting in Popular Mechanics.

 

Information is available also on the CIA website including approved for release documents.

"to help Dan"??? I doubt he needs help and probably got a great $$$ deal from the publisher.


He may have self-published and there was no deal.

Re: Dan Hughes novel coming out

Thank goodness it is not ANOTHER memoir!!!  I am so tired of seeing the number of memoirs people write.  Just a quick way they think they will make $$$ .  Suppose some of them do.  I work in a library and memoirs are definitely flooding the shelves.

Good for him.  I hope he gets to do what is pleasing to him.  Another chance maybe at missed dreams.  Go for it Dan.  Nice to hear he is trying other things.

Dan was like watching paint dry. Not a fan at all.
