The Library


Whatever an author puts between the two covers of his book is public property; whatever of himself he does not put there is his private property, as much as if he had never written a word.  ~ Gail Hamilton

When I wrote Free from Hepatitis C, I imagined it in retail and web-based bookstores, but I did not think about it in that most venerable institution—the library. A librarian at the Iowa City Public Library ordered a copy and sent me the card catalog link. This small act sealed my belief that I am an author.
