Not “fiction.” Non-existent…

I have a hard time deciding who is South Carolina’s biggest asshole. Currently, Sanford, that Kincannon prick and Thomas Ravenel are all tied for first.

They are all members of “Team Voltron- Asshole Edition”. God help us if they are all spotted in the same room.

“maverick who goes up against the system and its ways, but thinks he doesn’t have to live by the rules.”

Doesn’t that describe FITS, John McCain and the whole Liberal-Tarian Movement….????

So that’s two books and counting about the saga that is Sanford. He just might be egotistical enough to like the centrality of being featured in another public work. He’ll put his spin on it for sure….

Is Belen’s code name Bonita? Jenny is Jewel and Mark is Gatsby?

Hah! I forgot about that prominence, and presumable talent. In the end, it didn’t win the day (reportedly.)

Really a MISSED opportunity by FITS. And FITS, I would have likely worked w/ you to write it…because I think Sanford is a pretty interesting, enigmatic and tragic figure….His story could dazzle an audience by his sheer ignorance of himself…that we could lay out in prose.

Sanford is a man given a lot…who kills himself in small and petty – paper cut – types ways for NOTHING. Petulant – and thin skinned- he is…..We could show how – and speculate as to why – he is like he is…

Probably too late now…but you had the inside…With my intellect and insight, and ability to create intrigue and drama…it would have been a great book.

The promo for this book reminds of the guy in Army boot camp who wrote home, “Dear Mama and Papa, I miss you both very much and, most of all, I miss my little potty.” To which the reply was, “Dear Son, your sentiments are lovingly appreciated by Pa and me, but don’t be concerned about your potty – you missed it a lot when you were little.”

The philanderer who was AWOL. What a sorry day in S.C.
I have no desire to read a fictional account about “users of others”.

I will look forward to reading this. Someone close to me worked for Sanford, and I have no love lost for either him or English.
