Hi, Michael-
Merry etc.
You may recall that we spoke last month about Pat Stack's book-in-progress on using sales principles to advance one's acting career, and you had expressed concern that the audience would be too narrow and proposed that it instead be geared towards salespeople. Stack wanted me to let you know that he's expanding the audience to encompass not only actors, but entertainment industry folks in general - everyone from producers to cinematographers. If such a move might prompt your interest in the project, let me know. Otherwise, thanks again for your earlier input, as well as for having considered my Evangelical manuscript two years back (I never did get it sold, but instead incorporated existing chapters into my next book, which deals mostly with the inadequacies of pundits such as Thomas Friedman and which will be released this April).
