I love Eileen Merry March books; they are delicious. She is a talented writer with a knack for getting her main character into the strangest jams. I love them all.

Eileen, if you are reading this, you are a special person to honour your friend by completing his book and leaving that legacy for his wife and children.

I also love Merry March. And Eileen, really. What a wonderful thing to do, right.

Jo, your interview with Eileen was illuminating, especially on the subject of making provision for our works, and works in process. I can’t imagine going forth to finish the novel of a friend who’d passed, but, Eileen, it seems you used the materials he left, along with your knowledge of him, and your skills/experience to bring the book to the finish line handily. Great interview, Jo.

I'm almost finished with Jim's book and I'm loving it...it has so many interesting levels to it. The horror, sincerity, the wide range of characters and their voices, and romantic sub-plot...all of it has hooked me. Thank you Eileen for taking on this project!!
