It's Fr. Hal here....to wish you a happy new year, and to compliment this blog.

Do you have extra copies of your novels you can autograph for me?

Bless Eleanor for me....

You may see me around as Amadieux, too.

Thank you very much, Father Hal. Yes, I have plenty of books and would be happy to send them to you. How many would you like and shall I send them to your usual address?
