I think her exact words when I told her I was a fan of his were "OK we are going to have to talk about him now"

Do you know I was reading your blog for months before "the penny dropped" (as the English say) and I realized Megan was your daughter? It was just after I finished reading "Bury Me Deep" and you had made a comment along the lines of "I had lunch with Megan..."

I agree about James Ellroy. I went through an Ellroy phase several years ago and read everything by him I could get my hands on. The book about his mother's murder and his subsequent attempts to come to terms with it is, to me, his best.

Your daughter? I didn't know. She amazes me. This lovely little woman write such rich, tough, raw scenes it's hard to believe. You must be very proud.
