Dear Bower:

Bless your heart and many thanks. I certainly do deeply appreciate what you have just done in the interest of the Dick Cavett show and my work generally. Your latest efforts are too characteristic for thanks and I feel almost guilty when I thank you again (nevertheless, please don't quit!). I note that the Dick Cavett address that you give is not quite correct. It should be American Broadcasting Company, 170 90 Broadway, New York, N. Y. 10019.

It does look as though there is a ground swell of interest in my stuff. It's a constant surprise to me.

I have just signed an option contract with a movie producer.

I do want to know more about Lucile's progress with the revision job. It's going to be a great day when we see that in print.

With the old affection,

John G. Neihardt
