That was a little embarrassing. It came back with the suggestion that I fire my girlfriend and hire a real typist. <br /><br />No one famous though.

He also included instructions on proper formatting of a manuscript. Also,on two other occassions,I got return postcards from Isaac Asimov answering a couple of questions I had regarding science fiction lit since I was interested in that genre at the time. Regretfully, I no longer possess these little treasures. What happened to them? Lost, I guess. Too much moving around in my younger days. Yours truly, Toe.
