The absolute, unvarnished truth. I swear it on every one of my Elvis and BTO CDs. Now, let\u0092s get right down to it, y\u0092all just focus your eyes on the following sentence:&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>I was the inspiration for the male lead in a published romance novel.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Okay, okay, scoff all y\u0092all want. I\u0092m not shooting the bull here, I\u0092m shooting just as straight as Annie Oakley. And before I give out the name of this book, I need to tell y\u0092all a little about its author and how it all came about. &#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Trish Jensen is the author of the book in question. Those of you who read romantic fiction might know her name, as she\u0092s the author of several highly popular romance novels, her two latest being \u0093Stuck With You,\u0094 and \u0093Against His Will.\u0094 Let me also add that Trish (www.trishjensen.com) publishes with Leisure Books, a large New York based publishing house. So Trish is a major league romance author, she\u0092s the real deal, a veritable BTO of publishing acumen, and she also happens to be a wonderful judge of character, if I do say so myself.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Trish and I met out in cyberspace several years ago because we both frequented a popular writer\u0092s online group at that time. She writes humor, and I try to, so we became friends. I give Trish a whole lot of credit, she gave me lots of encouragement when I first began writing, and I credit a lot of whatever has happened since directly to her. Friends like her don\u0092t just come along everyday, and I\u0092m very proud of her and her accomplishments.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Now, in order to fully disclose, I feel that I need to tell y\u0092all something else about Trish &#8211; she\u0092s a yankee. Yep, I know some of y\u0092all may be in shock over this, and I fully understand, but she\u0092s still a good person. The best thing about Trish is that she realizes that the true utopia of the United States is right here in the South, and on account of that just about all of her books are set here. She\u0092s so good at writing about us that I sometimes wonder if she\u0092s being totally truthful about never having lived here. There\u0092s some Southern blood somewhere in this girl, for sure.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Now, about the book. A few years ago, when Trish was just starting out, she wrote a romance novel called \u0093Send Me No Flowers.\u0094 She even had to use her maiden name, Trish Graves, on the book\u0092s cover because of some kind of contractual thing regarding her name with another publisher. Anyway, Trish starts writing this book, and the lead male character happens to be a South Carolina sheriff who\u0092s honest, good looking, and who has women falling all over him. She named this character Rob Townsend. And when Trish considered all of his qualities, she felt that there was only one true role model for Rob, only one living person out there who could fully capture his essence, and that was moi. Me. So the book got written, and you can get on the internet and probably find a copy out there somewhere if you look really, really hard. And if y\u0092all still don\u0092t want to believe me, just take a gander at the dedication to the book after you get your hands on one. Read it closely. Ahem. Case closed.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>Y\u0092all might wonder why I\u0092m finally \u0093outing\u0094 myself as the male lead of a romance novel after this much time. Well, I\u0092m doing it cause Trish has been a little under the weather here lately, and sometimes I think you need to acknowledge dear friends who\u0092ve been kind to you. And in this case one who\u0092s always been kind to me. Odds are that she\u0092ll probably get a look at this article, and I sincerely hope that she realizes just how special she is, and why I\u0092ll always think so fondly of her. She\u0092s a great writer, and an even classier person. I could go on and write even more about her, but I\u0091m scheduled for some plastic surgery in just a couple of days, so I\u0092ve gotta start packing &#8211; after all, one never knows when they might meet the editor of Playgirl Magazine somewhere out there in the literary world&#8230; &#13;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellpadding=\"8\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#dddddd\">\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p><b>About The Author<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Ed\u0092s latest book, \u0093Rough As A Cob,\u0093 can be ordered by calling River City Publishing toll-free at: 877-408-7078.
