I rarely write to the media, but I have just finished Lech Blaineâs article [March 27] and wish to say what wonderful writing it is. His prose was captivating. I hope he becomes a novelist. I understand his need to write his memoir about the car crash; it is a never-to-be-forgotten event. Now I hope he will be able to use his talent to write novels for all of us literature lovers. Good luck, Lech.
