On Writing This part of the site is where I will chronicle my experience of the literary life and the writing process. Check out my blog section for posts as well. My wife and I met best-selling author Terry Brooks at a signing a few years ago in Noblesville, Indiana. We’ve enjoyed his books since college days. He says he has ten more years to get the rest of his stories out. His memoir is titled Sometimes the Magic Works. James Rollins writes thrillers that take you places and teach you things. He came to Indy a few years ago to promote his book The Eye of God. Nadine took this picture of us in the Columbia Club on the Circle downtown.
