Hmmm… I should preface this by pointing out that I have not read Heat Wave…<\/p>\n
As I have written before, I am a fan of the ABC show Castle<\/em><\/strong>. I found out about the work of actor Nathan Fillion when he was on Firefly, and have\u00a0enjoyed watching him ever\u00a0since. I think that his comedic timing is to be commended.\u00a0He is able\u00a0to be the funny\u00a0character or the straight, dead-pan character with what appears to be the same ease. And, he is usually very self-deprecating… I don’t know why I find that so charming.<\/p>\n Several people have written\u00a0to tell me that they got the book Heat Wave<\/a><\/em>, which is “authored” by Richard Castle. Don’t get me wrong… but isn’t Richard Castle a fictitious character on a show called Castle?!? Yes, being a fan of the show, I can tell you that he is just that! A fictitious character on a show.<\/p>\n So, why is it that the book doesn’t list a ghost writer?<\/p>\n Personally, I would rather know who\u00a0the person (#1) behind the person (#2) is. (You can substitute “ghost writer” for #1 and “fictitious character” for #2.)<\/p>\n I looked around on the internet hoping to find exactly who the author is, but was not able to come up with anything concrete. I did, however, find a lot of speculation. Here are a few of the names I found being tossed around as possibilities:<\/p>\n Stephen J. Cannell<\/a> (True, he is a best selling author and creator of television shows…) Hmmm… I should preface this by pointing out that I have not read Heat Wave… As I have written before, I am a fan of the ABC show Castle.
