Sorry I've been AWOL

[Michael West]

Posted this on my blog, but in case you missed it, reposting it here...

The wife is having a "spa party" at West Manor tonight, so I'm going to take a break from writing and meet my brother for a screening of 28 Weeks Later. ;D

Loved the first film, and I've only read one negative review. One out of 20. Not bad. It's getting better notices than Spider-Man 3, so I hope I won't be as disappointed with this sequel as I was with that one.



BTW, on the movie review front...

Sorry about the lack of reviews in recent months. I've had to cut back on both my movie watching and my non-novel writing time in order to keep my promise to Don D'Auria. I promise YOU, however, that as soon as the novel is complete, I will return to reviewing with a vengeance.

If anyone on the board wants to take up the slack, please feel free to post reviews of the movies you're watching in theaters and on DVD.

Thanks for understanding.

hey mike

i think we all understand...hey, if any of us had the opportunity, the priorities of keeping up a message board tend to fall pretty quickly. the new book is not just another horror novel, but may very well be THE breakout book by our favorite author! so write like the wind, good Mike, and know that all of us are silently pulling for you...this is too importaht to skimp on.

i think we can all try and pick up the slack and keep the site up to date w/reviews and what have you...you just write the best damn book you can

we are all behind you! you can do it! take advantage of this opportunity...just promise us that you will grandfather us into free memberships when this site turns into a fan club and has millions of members!

so make it happen, good Mike. We'll be right here waiting for you...
