Ray Bradbury The Writer Who Writes Because He Likes It

Dear Janet C,

Thank you for your memories of meeting Ray. You may have read of my moments with Ray in one of the other topics, but all I can say is that he is truly a genuine person who really feels the love of his fans and returns it.

I have corresponded with him for over 35 years, have been in his home on four different occasions, and have quite a few books that he has graciously authographed (and illustrated) for me.

Just yesterday afternoon I spoke with Ray and he sounded great. It is always nice to speak with him, although I make a point not to call him to often, as he, even being 81 years old, is a very busy person.

Wow, this is an old thread you've just revived, Doug. The original poster back in 2002 - "flyboy" - sounds remarkably like biplane1. Was it you, biplane?
