“First, thanks for the good words on the book. One of the best things about writing for publication is getting letters from people who read what you tried to put down… I think the shrinks call it “communication.” Anyway, it’s a good feeling to know that somebody in Herrin, Ill. is hearing my music, however weird or warped it might sound at that range.”
- Dr. Hunter S. Thompson in reply to a fan letter, 1968
