How many times have you heard a speaker do that to a microphone, not quite believing his or her voice was being heard by the audience? You find me in a similar position, and apologizing in advance if I'm as clumsy as that speaker.
This is a place where readers can ask questions and get information about my books and stories, and where I'll be talking about subjects both related and unrelated to my writing.

Hey Jan,
Finished "Sweet Dreams, Irene". Very nice. Kept me up reading.
For some reason, I can't seem to find a copy of "Dear Irene" anywhere around here.
Thank God for Amazon.
..it is in print, isn't it??

Yes, all my books are still in print. Any bookstore should have been able to order it for you if they didnt have it in stock.
Glad you liked Sweet Dreams, Irene!
Jan
so how long have you been writing. I love your books every one of them keep me reading i am reading "Dear Irene" now. So far i am, as always, not disappointed. Thanx for your time and effort in your writings. We are all blessed to have you :).
Thanks for the very kind words, Danny!
I started saying I wanted to be a writer around the age of seven. But I didn't seriously start working on a novel until late in 1989. Put it aside for about six months, then got back to it. That book -- Goodnight, Irene -- was sold to Simon & Schuster in 1991 and was published in 1993.
Yours,
Jan
