Hey John, You the man!!! I am a proud dad, baseball coach, hockey coach, and a psychologist. I love your books and I can’t wait until The Associate come out. By the way, I enjoyed the movie Mickey and I am really hoping my son makes 9 year old all stars next year. We actually won the city championship for in the 7,8, and 9 year old division last season. He is a very good pitcher, yet his batting is average to high average. I have been coaching my son’s baseball teams since he was 5 years old in tee-ball. It has been a wonderful ride and I don’t want it to end. Your movie Mickey really connected with me. The best scene was the draft scene. As a coach I have attended numerous drafts and your depiction was humorous and right-on-the-money. Keep the pen flowing. You ought to do a book signing in New England. You have lots of fans up here.
All the best, Hugh

As always, awaiting release of your next novel, Jan 27th. I enjoy the settings, characters, etc as I also enjoy Fannie Flagg, Jan Karon and David Baldacci.

Any thoughts on writng on a person who seems to be always forgotten in a courtroom, but who sees all and always a constant……“The Bailiff”?Could be a great story there for you, John.

The one and only thing, which I hate about a new book by John Grisham is the fact that you wait long enough for it to come out. Then three days later, you would have read it and will have to wait for another year or more for another new one! I find myself reading some of the old books again.

This is how great you are and may God bless you and give you the health to write more books.

I cannot wait, until “The Associate” is out.
