It's a small world, and the Internet has made it even smaller. Over the past few years since I first explored the web, I've corresponded with all sorts of people I might not have met otherwise. Last Tuesday the world shrank a little more, in a good way.
I mentioned a book by William Brohaugh called "Write Tight." The next day I was greatly surprised and thrilled to see that the author had noticed the mention in this blog and responded with some great news. His comments are below in bold:
Kathy, thank you for the kind and humbling comments about Write Tight. I know the author well because, um, well, I'm the author.
Write Tight is not out of print (ISI Books is the current publisher), though availability seems a mite scarce at the moment.
Good news: Especially because of your enthusiasm for the book, I'm excited to announce (and yes, this is, to the best of my knowledge, the first place it's been annnounced) that Write Tight will be coming out in paperback soon--schedule at the moment is fall 2007.
Good luck in your writing, and thanks again for your kind nod to Write Tight.
There you go, folks; you heard it here! To find out more about this great editor and author, check out his website.

That's exciting! It's cool to know authors are real people, too.
I enjoy dropping by your blog from time to time. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! I just got another of Mr. Brohaugh's books--"Professional Etiquette for Writers", which I found via Amazon's used book marketplace. I think it'll be pretty useful as well.
