I hope that is all the housekeeping. Got a great email re the prison girls and their letters for money thing:
Gross!!!
As much as porn--soft or hard--disgusts me to the core, I am wondering if Nixon is singling out these 33 women. Are other prisoners who are making money in a similar manner allowed to keep the money? I believe that no prisoner should be allowed to profit on-line, regardless where the money goes. They cannot vote--why should they be able to run a business? True, it may be good "training" for the business world...but these women are not going to get out and open a business. Maybe a brothel... They are paying no overhead, wages, etc, and are reaping all the benefits. they can take advantage of all the free college they can get as that "experience". it doesnt matter if they were to make $10.00 or $100,000.00; it should NOT be allowed in the first place.
Since you will not release the addresses (thank you!!), please let us know the institutions so we can complain.
At least Nixon took the money; he should stop it altogether.
Tomorrow the guys wanting to open a Jazz Bar on Commercial.
See ya on the radio!

Vince, have you ever heard that "Attorney General", whose initials are "AG", also stands for "Aspiring Governor"?
Nixon's talking about taking that very job. Of course, he's going to pad his resume with stuff like this, when we have sex offenders, con men, thieves, and Congressmen walking around in broad daylight like they were ordinary humans.
Sorry, the sarcasm bug never leaves my system. Have a government-approved day! And get better, dude. Being sick bites.
I am writing in regard to the show you had the other day labeling romance wriing as porn. I am writing a book that is labeled as a romance and there is no sex in it at all. Grace Livingston Hill wrote over 80 books as a way to support her family after her husband "Peter Marshall", the famed senate Chaplain, died. They were definetly romance, but they were also inspirational. They inspired me to look for a husband that was a dedicated christian. It inspired me to live an industrious life. Many of her heroines were poor, but very creative in how they managed their lives.
Jeannete Oake also is a Romance writer. She wrote the "Love Comes Softly" series. It has been made into a series of movies produced by Michael Landons son. Also Christian, they are very inspirational.
There are as many varieties of romance novels as there are of mystery novels or mainstream novels. Even Harliquin has a line called "Steeple Hill".
You need to read a good novel. Nora Roberts is a great novelist and her romances are now considered mainstream. They will make you laugh, cry and scare you to death all in one book.
Don't be so narrow minded. Sex is a part of life. It happens. How do you think you got here? I say men need to step up to the plate and be there for their wives. The truth is, the fact that they don't is our own fault. We get what we expect. For this reason I have started "The Black Bra Club" Read more about that at: http://www.blackbraclub.com.
I'll be listening Tuesday morning when you grill Jill on Romance writing.

In my humble opinion, this guy is just looking for fuel to add to his radio ratings and romance novels seem to be the current controversial soup de jour.
Jill means well, and I applaud her for the courage to go on the radio show and defend romance novels - but those who haven't read them, and have no intention of reading them, are not going to really LISTEN to anyone or anything about them. Obviously, their minds are already made up.
Those who don't read ANY romance novels, have not a clue as to what they're talking about when they slam them as in ye olde cliches: "Porn for housewives", "Bodice-rippers", yada, yada. Maybe that was true in the 70's and early 80's to some degree, but we're in the 21st century, folks.
At least romance novel writers in this day and age have evolved - narrow-minded people tend to stay the same, no matter what the century. Sad state of affairs, but whatta ya gonna do?
Live and let live - read what you want - but it's unfair, to say the least, that a wide and varied genre like romance, be bashed solely on one person's biased-without-fact(s) opinion. Even if he is entitled to it.
Piffle.

I made a mistake. Grace Livingston Hill was a wife of a minister who died, but it wasn't Peter Marshall. Catherine Marshall, Peter's wife wrote "A Man Called Peter" and "Christy". They are both great ladies and great writers. Both very inspirational.
