As I'm not American, although good at dialogue, do you think I should relocated the story to the U.K.?

Obviously he has the network/studio by the cojones and so gets a title, some ownership in the series and a bump in salary. But how often does he/she become involved in upper-level decision making? <br /><br />P.S. Loved your book.

Fortunate to have the panic button on the remote key, so that I could hear the correct car go off on the other side of the parking lot.<br /><br />It is also the oddest thing in PHX to hear of people getting a hotel room near the airport, only to have to drive 5 miles in the other direction to return their car.Phillip Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08498595633633248863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-30366001988389798652011-03-28T09:10:33.218-07:002011-03-28T09:10:33.218-07:00What an energizing way to start Monday morning - t...What an energizing way to start Monday morning - thanks for the laughs!<br /><br />I'm very much enjoying "Where the Hell Am I?" as well.RCPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-52218690323439706722011-03-28T09:06:10.831-07:002011-03-28T09:06:10.831-07:00I grew up there.
