> Since we are doing this -- coincidentally, my new book came out this week, but certainly would not hold the general interest that yours does. It is a textbook of Emergency Psychiatry:
Cogratulations, Jim and Scott. Maybe you will inspire me to work on
my novel again, it has sat on the shelf (well, actually in a Word file)
for at least two years. I have done some research for it by visiting
some of the types of venues the plot uses, though.
"Emergency" and "Psychiatry" are not words one often sees paired together,
at least not outside of the newspapers, where it seems they are paired
together too often.
I'm reminded of the story about when Lewis Carroll (Charles Dodgson) met
with Queen Victoria, who praised "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and
asked the author to be sure to send her a copy of his next book. As the
story goes, Her Majesty was not as impressed with that book, a mathematical
treatise.
(Dodgson later denied that the incident ever happened, but that doesn't
make it any less entertaining of a story.)
