I heard him today. I have all kinds of notes about him. It probably sounds a bit KGB or Big Brother, but, believe me, his dossier is complete.

Shannon Fay on Interactions with the Written Word. Welcome to the site of Shannon Fay, author. Laquo; The Reason of Voice. Take Two–The Blog. THEY said I should create a site. With a blog.
