A Richard Barrett Update

The following correspondence is just off the crackpot telegraph from young Richard Barrett, a man of irrepressible spirit.
I have cast Richard as the protagonist in the ongoing steampunk novel A Gaslight Knight.
Richard is also, in Last White Man designated as the posthumous publisher of Robert E. Howard's last work in an alternative history in which the father of Swords & Sorcery lived until 1968.
Richard, I hope to see you and train with you this coming spring. The Wolverine leaves often from Chicago as I wait for my cross country connect. This will be easy. I won't be able to carry gear as i still need crutches to use the train with a light pack. So, bring the boxing gloves. If you want to practice stick fighting we need 2 rattan sticks, 2 fencing masks and 2 pair of lacrosse or hockey gloves, used from a play it again sports, are best.

Hey Brother!
The closest train station to me is the Ann Arbor Train Station in Ann Arbor, Michigan, that runs on Amtrak's Wolverine, according to Wikipedia:
This station is about 30 minutes from my home...I wrote by Eagle and Snake article just a few miles from this station, and it is also overlooked by the hospital where my Mom spent her final hours!
Also, below attached is an article I have written entitled "Heroes and Friends: A Writer's Round-Up From Across the Web"...it features the links to some of the fellow unique authors I was telling you about!
Please share with your readership...I think they will like these guys!
And finally, check out my latest article: "Gunsmoke at the Strip Club: Why I Love the Bad Girls of Aphrodite".
It's a "Trojan Whorse" piece if there ever was one...and if you look carefully, you'll detect the influence of a certain fella who was enamored with the Blue-Eyed Daughter of Zeus!
Enjoy brother! I hope to see you soon, if not sooner, than later!
Sincerely,
Richard Barrett
