Steve:
    Just wanted to take a minute to thank you for the post, it is very
informative. Anyone going to see Mr. Cook at a convention elsewhere? I live
out in the wild and wooly west and he never seems to make it out here.

Take care,
another Steve

Bagel,

"Does anyone know if Glen ever does conventions or talks in other states?"

All the time!  He spends nearly every weekend at a con, selling books.

    Well done Steve!  In 10 minutes you asked some great questions
and got some very interesting answers.  :-)  A new trilogy is very
exciting, as is a possible new BC book (not to mention Angry Lead
Skies).  I hope that his police drama does get published.

                Steve
