John is a fabulous human being; buy his book, The Passionate Papers of Fiona Pilgrim online at his very own website!

Joe Leonard has problems. His writing has cost him his marriage; his job selling insurance is costing him his sanity. Looking for a sinecure to support his literary efforts, Joe decides to write romance novels. To better his chances of getting published, he, under the pseudonym Fiona Pilgrim, writes to June Featherstone, the doyenne of romance novelists, to enlist her support and guidance. Through an exchange of letters, June mentors Fiona. By the concluding chapter of Fiona's novel, Tempestuous Summer—The Hottest Season, the two correspondents have grown to admire and respect each other. Friendship has blossomed. However, unless he expeditiously does away with Fiona, Joe will soon be exposed as the fraud he is, and his chances for publication—but more importantly his chances for love—will be forever lost. Joe Leonard has problems.
