Laura, good morning. I would love to read it if you could send it e-book somehow. I'm in the Philippines, so snail mailing it would not be practical. j (joe) guevara also, have you ever heard of a book titled "I Been There Before" by: Carkeet? I just finished writing a novel about Twain along the same theme, and am interested to find out how close we are. I never heard of it til just recently. it was published in 1984/5. If the theme of our novels are really that close, I can forget getting it published. Bummer. I've been working on the idea on and off since 1986. any information you can provide would bo appreciated. thanks, j
