Dear Mr. Fraser Heston,
I have written a manuscript about your late father called Charlton Heston’s Inferno, the New Devine Comedy. It is about Charlton Heston’s death, how he descends into hell, where he meets victims of his pro-gun policy. This work is very much a parity of Dante Alighieri’s The Devine Comedy. iUniverse.com has expressed interest in publishing this work. Pete Angleton, who works in the Content Evaluation department at iUniverse, wishes me to contact the Charlton Heston estate, and he needs to receive written permission to publish a book involving Charlton. This written permission can be in the form of an email as long as their contact information is given. I am told if I do not receive permission, they will be unable to publish the manuscript.
You may be curious about my background information. A few years ago, I was interviewed on at this link: http://writingfiction.
I have received nine major reviews for my present book, Mystery of Everyman's Way, including a five star review from Midwest Book Review. Some reviews can be found here at http://www.amazon.com/Mystery- Everymans-Way-Paul-Collins/dp/ 1605301183 or at http://www.beachmetro.com/ news.entertainment.html and http://www.sci-fi-online.com/ 2008_reviews/book/08-02-01_ mysteryway.htm. I did an online interview which can be found at this link: http://www.dailygrail.com/ node/2027
I was previously a member of the Writers and Editors Network. Here is their review at this link: http://www.wenetwork.org/book-
Thanks
in advance for reading this far. If you have any questions regarding
the manuscript, or any of my books, please don't hesitate to have your
people contact me by phone, or email. Thanks again for being receptive to any of us scribblers with ideas.
Sincerely,
Paul Collins—King without an Empire and Mystery of Everyman’s Way
