Title: Bad Form for a Writer
Review: I was born in the area where this story is set and I would guess I am older than the author. I recognized almost all of the major "fictional" characters and I must say I am perplexed as to why these people who I and I am sure many others know are so thinly veiled.For example, there is only one attorney in town who is named "Myron." He is portrayed in such an unflattering way, so unlike the fine man he is. Also, I know who "Sarge" is and also the woman who is the star in the pornographic film. I found it incomprehensible why a writer would do this. The people who are portrayed as "fictional" characters must be frightfully embarrassed. It made me very uncomfortable to read this story. Someone should have advised Stevens that this is very bad form for a writer. Very bad form, indeed.Heather SerenePhiladelphia
