Check out the link while it’s still relevant, because surely this is the last time I will write these words: “Chief Bender’s Burden” has hit No. 1 on a bestseller list.

That is very freaking cool. It’s the “Better than Obama” headline that got my attention. I thought your head swelled so much that you might run for President. I talked to my grandfather on the phone yesterday and - after reading Jerry’s clipping from the Northfield News - he’s really looking forward to reading Chief Bender’s Burden. It better live up to the hype, because although I don’t know where you live, I know where your web site is. Just remember, I speak more loudly than I write, and the last thing you want is an eyeful of either me in real-life or as a cartoon character. Anyways, good work and congratulations. I’ve wanted to write a science fiction novel since I was a kid, but haven’t yet come up with an idea for one. Maybe later still, I’ve got time. All the best…

Remember, those were Jerry’s words, Andy, not mine. I strongly encourage people to buy a copy but I cannot guarantee they will enjoy it.
Are authors allowed to split hairs like that?
Yes we can.
