More about Jim:"I wanted to write "Th...Expand for more
e Great American Novel," but, alas, I found that I'm only a second class writer. Truman Capote once said, "Go first class or third class. Never second class." So, I've become an excellent editor of the words written by first class writers. And as a book designer, I've been told that I am pretty good. So, I faced the truth of my shortcomings, and am extremely happy doing something that I am good at."
I am also a consultant to a literary publicity company, Kelley & Hall Book Publicity, run by my wife, Gloria, my two daughters, Jocelyn and Megan, and my son, Connor.
