It was not meant as a theater trailer, but as a "tone piece", as it is explained on the YouTube site:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D37z9EBch8g<br /><br />Again, THANK YOU, and please accept my best wishes!<br /><br />Edward<br />EdwardMooney.comEdward Mooney, Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12138884554680050114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319886081447332049.post-4988905584472728152010-06-02T13:07:26.383-07:002010-06-02T13:07:26.383-07:00I would love to read this.

Others don't like the story tend to stay away from any deeper, more real-to-life feelings. That's my opinion, of course. Not that either side is wrong, it's something very personal. I'm trying to touch what I see as the human experience.<br /><br />Edward<br />EdwardMooney.comEdward Mooney, Jr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12138884554680050114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319886081447332049.post-33158672718964782612010-05-29T22:14:11.366-07:002010-05-29T22:14:11.366-07:00Sounds like a wonderful novel I'd like to curl...Sounds like a wonderful novel I'd like to curl up with when no one is around and I can let the tears flow.

It is so funny that you mention a USO dance, my dream includes that too. My grandparents met at a USO dance, it is my dream to write their story into my own novel. It is such a scary feat to tackle though and the research has really made me scared to tackle it. <br /><br />Mine would be the love stuck couple who meet at a USO dance hall, fought for America, immigrated west. At one point in my grandfathers life he met President Truman and when I was little he told me he "had a discussion" with him. What that meant I am still unsure. How very cool I can not wait to get my copy of your book. I wish you luck on your upcoming one I think it sounds lovely, I love romance and history.Lizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06610444517085989215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2319886081447332049.post-28580225700144919442010-05-27T11:48:17.402-07:002010-05-27T11:48:17.402-07:00Hi, Lizzy!
