Do you ever bristle at the trite, sometimes unthinking advice thrown at you by well-meaning people who don’t know you at all? (Like me, for instance.)

Trite sometimes is meant … I mean to be not trite. Sometimes there’s truth there, yanno?
Kinda like ‘show, don’t tell” …

Also, I decided to name a character after you. Sgt. Marcus. He’ll be the protag in a new book.
If that’s okay? I can always change it to something else. I don’t want to be too presumption. Just a little presumptuous.

Ok? I’m honored. And a protag, even better. Fits. Just so you let me know when the new book is available.
