If a writer...Andy, I'll agree with you on that. If a writer makes specific plans for having someone else finish his book in the event of the writer's death, then I have no problem with it. In that case, it seems to me, the second writer is doing the first a favor as opposed to simply ripping him off.James L.

I could not feel close to any of the characters. I was more interested in "The Girl Who Played With Fire" so on the advice of others I read the first one. I did listen to the audio book and I know that this could account for some of my disinterest. <br /><br />Congratulations on your new book!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06585654862995986219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4391949847298351374.post-40699685838030862852010-06-20T14:30:23.787-07:002010-06-20T14:30:23.787-07:00I agree with you.I agree with you.Mr. Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813337990785667344noreply@blogger.com
