That said, thank you Robert. <i>Suspension</i> takes me back to that deep love affair with solitude and the longing for love and connection that, I think, makes every writer kin to one another. Funny how we are a breed who make it our life's breath to comment on the every movement of humanity, and yet remove ourselves from it in order to make it come alive on page. Lance, you are, ever, the rouge gentleman, and I love you much. I didn’t want to post on this until I’d gotten myself deeply enough into Suspension as to be more than a googlizing commenter.

Maybe that's appropriate to Suspension? Wonderful interview, Lance! See, I didn’t see it as a dimple-smile so much as a sly, half sardonic smile, Robert. Maybe that’s appropriate to Suspension?

Wonderful interview, Lance!

I had a great time chatting with you, Lance, and look forward to drinks in January with the rest of you. The dimple? Hilarious. Believe it or not, there was an elaborate conversation during the ordeal that produced the author photo--how do you match the picture with a book that's comic (the author should be smiling) but also rather dark (he shouldn't smile too much)? Answer: Dimple. "Yeah, baby, show me that dimple, work it, work it..." Thanks! I had a great time chatting with you, Lance, and look forward to drinks in January with the rest of you. The dimple?

And wanting to know them better. Robert, your book is next on my list of purchases, I'm looking forward to reading it. Thank you both for stimulating my brain today.
