Best Wishes from Michigan
Mary B. works for an academic press in Michigan, my proud home state ("Land of Many Unemployed Auto Workers"). She sent this note after reading an early copy of Marley & Me:
Dear John Grogan, Last week I was at the annual book publishing extravaganza, Book Expo of America and a bookseller friend of mine stopped by my stand and plopped an advance reading copy of MARLEY & ME down in front of me and told me that I had to read your book but that I should keep a box of kleenex handy for the ending! I just finished the book last night and all I can say is that you should get a separate e-mail address just for this book because if people have the reaction I had you will be flooded with heartfelt comrades from all over the country/world! What a great story. I have a Marley and I understand the trials and tribulations and the absolute patience and good will that it can take...but it's truly worth it, isn't it? The very best of luck to you with the book, it's really terrific and I'll tell all of my dog loving friends to pick up a copy of it when it's out. Cheers, Mary
Thanks for the words of support, Mary. And I followed your advice and do have a separate email address just for talking about this book and website. It's john.grogan@marleyandme.com. Drop me a line!
