		<description>I am the sister of Don Hudson who was shot and killed by Bobbie Hoppe,an Auburn football player. He was killed in 1957. It was the talk of Chattanooga Tennessee for years. Mr. Hoppe and his family members took the 5th amendment in 1957. The state said there was not enough evidence to have a trial. My mother after 30 years later got a detective to finally listen and she got a trial which ended in a hung jury. Don was noted for hauling wiskey. Please, please look this up on your computer under Bo
Bobbie Hoppe and get back with me.</description>

		<description>Hi

Don&#039;t suppose you&#039;ll ever see this but I have read and stayed up all night to finish a number of your books. The book that had the most impact on me was The Innocent Man, I had steam coming out of my ears almost I was so angry and upset about that poor man. I am a huge fan of Michael Jackson and most books about him are,to put it bluntly, utter crap. I have thought for a number of years that I would love to see you write a fair and honest biography of him, I think you would do an amazing job. It needs an outsider who has distance and no vested interest or axe to grind. There was certainly hugh injustice done to him. I don&#039;t suppose you&#039;ll see this or perhaps would want to do it so we are stuck with the so called friends or &quot;celebrity&quot; biographers who just want to write something that will sell.</description>

		<description>Dear Mr. Grisham,

I am a student working on a an Author Fest project, and for extra credit, we are allowed to send a letter to our author. In this case, John Gisham. I read online that an average response was a wait up to three months or more! Sadly, the project will have ended by then and I might not be able to recieve extra credit. Help!

Thankyou</description>

		<description>John Grisham could be compared to a mirage, You might see him or read his work but you will never get close enough to touch him. His advice made me giggle, &quot;Get a good agent.&quot; Kind of like, pick the right numbers and you could win the lottery, or vote for the right person for president and the country would get straightened out. I started writing because of John Grisham&#039;s work and have finished five books and I am resolved to keep writing and reading them myself, because the reality is, unknown writers don&#039;t have a prayer. The good agents won&#039;t read your work, the good publishers won&#039;t accept a submission except from a good agent so, you have two choices, laugh or cry. I choose to laugh because I have so much fun writing that I&#039;d never stop and the industry is so screwed up and political I choose to laugh at them for missing all of the good work that they do miss. It is easy to lump us all into a pile and lable us as &quot;struggling writers,&quot;a term that I heard a great writer from MS.use about himself once before he got lucky. The fact is if your&#039;e not writing because you love it, then 99.9% of us are wasting our time. I know that I have some great work, but you will never see my name on the N.Y Times best seller list.</description>
