First, I'm always excited when I find an old-fashioned web forum that's still active. Even more excited when it's one devoted to a dead writer.
I loved Chuck in my 20s. Now, as a recently unemployed (former?) software engineer in my early 40's (41 next month), his work resonates again. I sped through Factotum in bed over the weekend, and hung a printed copy of Roll The Dice on a corkboard collage in my bedroom. I'm two-thirds through the draft of my first novel, and whether it's a midlife crisis or something more substantial remains to be seen.
Looking forward to meeting all of you.
