Nice Compliment

You can never tell what's going to happen in the writing life.  This morning, I had a message from my agent saying he'd been contacted by a publisher asking if I might have a "trunk book or two" hidden away somewhere.  By this he meant a book written long along that had never sold but might be rescued with a little work.  Unfortunately, I don't.  Those I had of this kind were resurrected and sold in the years just after I became a New York Times best seller.  Still, it's a lovely compliment that a publisher was interested enough to inquire.  I do remember the days of knocking on publisher's doors, instead of the other way around....
