It was a tough birth, but the adventure will become my second book, and outsell MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL, and Dan Brown as well. (Can't wait to begin converting this blog into a book!!!)

Thanks to everyone -- ESPECIALLY those who gave me resistance, the Spiritual Gymnasium in which I developed my strength to complete this project. I could never have done it without you. That said, some may face civil and/or criminal consequences.

I added (in an edited-for-space way) the four reviews from the book's site to the Amazon sites, but they are currently being vetted by Amazon before being posted. Below is the content as edited (and includes Dr. Wright's original CAPITALIZATIONS):

REVIEWS:


John Lahr, The New Yorker
"I wasn't intending to read every word of your memoir; but it says something about how well you wrote it, that I did . . . you've found a very crisp and compelling style. And you come through vividly in it."

Thomas Keith: Editor of Tennessee Williams' books for New Directions Publishing

"Scott as done a beautiful job with his memoir. What makes it stand out from previous memoirs about Williams is its integrity, and the depth to which Scott reveals his own situation, mental health problems, fears, and hopes. Because of that integrity, the day-to-day descriptions of life with Williams and Scott's take on the tangle of problems Williams faced near the end of his life are that much more insightful. I also happen to like Scott's ability to describe a person or set a scene--even his thread of commentary on weather, light, and seasons informs us about the sensitivities of the man telling this story."

Dr. Kenneth Holditch: Williams scholar and Professor Emeritus at the University of New Orleans

"Having finished your manuscript, I am confirmed in my initial judgment that this is a very fine work indeed. Tennessee really comes alive in your narrative, as do other personages, a few of whom I knew. Let me be truthful and say that I put off reading your work because I have read so many–both published and in manuscript–that were handed to me and been much too often disappointed in what I read. That was not the case with your book. I found it spell-binding and raced on through it at the expense of my chores."

Dr. Larry Myers: Playwright/Associate Professor, St John's University/Williams Friend & Scholar

"Your book much seems channeled from some astral plane or higher consciousness. When I read it, HE IS HERE!"
