Mr. Mosley

For anyone doubting the validity of using Wordpress to make our websites - though I'm going to try and do dreamweaver - check out Walter Mosley's website. http://www.waltermosley.com He's bigtime and you'll see at the bottom it says powered by Wordpress. He's also a hero of mine, my favorite living author - he wrote Devil and a Blue Dress, which was then the Denzel Washington movie, and he's written about 28 other books. He's pure fiction, says he couldn't write a passable poem to save his life, but he adores it nonetheless, and says - for all you straight fiction writers - even if you're half a poet, it will make your novel twice as good. Walter Mosley is a poet though, even though he says he isn't, and if you read something of his you'll see what I'm talkin' about.
