Can’t wait to get my hands on sequel to Moab. When oh when is it out. I miss you stephen. I met you at a book signing a long time ago when you had just done the film of the Evelyn Waugh book. And when I gave you my name you said “she who must be obeyed”. This was amazing because my mother named me ‘cos she was reading the Rider Haggard book when I was born!

Can I ask about the amazing weight loss? Does anyone know wht it was. Going to the gym? Not eating? Tell me please. I have about a stone and a half to lose and I go to the gym 4 times a week and do yoga and power plate and no carbs after 5pm. And I havent lost nearly as much as youe. HELP PLEEESE!

And please keep me posted as to any appearances in the near future.

There are many, many great artists I’m aware of for whom it is necessary to go underground in order to do their best work. Try to enjoy it while it lasts. I hope you don’t miss the pipe too much. You have both my sympathies and my congratulations for giving up smoking. I hope the lack of all things smoky does not create a distracting gap in the conditions, requirements, or intricacies of your process. Humans are capable of adapting or retraining themselves to do pretty much anything, but still, it would probably be extremely difficult for me. On a related note, I am somewhat of a pipe ‘enthusiast’, and it would be interesting to know what your favorite tobacco blends were. Although, it’s not exactly an applicable subject any longer.

All the best of wishes, I am looking forward to what’s coming.

Living just outside Los Angeles I have to say that the city is indeed spread out and poorly served by public transport.Walking is not much of an option unless you have the stamina of a marathon runner because so many places of interest (Major attractions) are miles away from each other. Having said that, If you select an area and stay within the boundaries there are a multitude of delightful eateries, tucked away stores and interesting architecture to keep you occupied for the day. As for the weather – L.A wins hands down.

I am very interested to read the next book you have install for us.

As somebody commented earlier, they found your programme on depression helpful, as did I when a friend from University was admitted into hospital, he was Bipolar which none of us even saw coming! Unfortunately not long after he was released he committed suicide. I am just finishing University at the moment, but , one of my next tasks is hopefully to get involved with charities and events management. One of the things that is constantly on my mind is my dear friend Andy Duff and the lack of support I think he got when suffering with Bipolar. So Mr Fry if you do read this and you ever feel like you could spare some of your time for a charitable event sponsoring something like MIND I would be much obliged to hear from you!! You certainly helped me understand what my friend was going through at the time and thank you for that time, hopefully I did make my friend Andy’s day a little brighter whilst he was in hospital.

Kind Regards

Michelle

I registered so that I could comment to you (hoping you’ll read it). I’ve just read your delightful, deliciously amusing, and downright conversational article in Time magazine. I could hear your wry humor speak to me as I read your words. Your every communication demonstrates your remarkable talent, whether it is the intriguing butler, psychiatrist turned chef, the adroit reader of J.K. Rowling’s magnificent prose, or the brother-from-across-the-pond admirer of many things American. Thank you Stephen, thank you so much for just being who you are. “Absolutely brilliant!”

I know what you mean… peace, silence, nobody breathes – ideal circumstands for writing. The world is full of things that diverts from writing. The best thing before: throw the TV out of the window, cut the internet-cable and throw away all interesting things out of my reach.

The best moment ever is when you full in the story / whatever you write and nothing around cut the line. You just swim and the words come from the ground of the sea. The only thing you must do is to grab and used them.

I wished you all good for the next book. I`ll look forward it.
Best wishes!

No SD Memory Card. Grrr!!!

Defiantly a revolutionary development and I can’t wait to buy one. The first ones will not accept not accept SD cards though. I’m going to wait for a while.

I still can’t get the failed Apple Newton out of my head. And only now, in writing this, have realised the correlation between apples and Newtons and gravity theories.

is this one of those connections that everyone else made in the 90′s?
