I feel the errors are minor and do not detract from the book's value.<br /><br />from KBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-5041689037293768372010-05-11T19:07:05.499-04:002010-05-11T19:07:05.499-04:00I just posted a Star article from 1985 to show we ...I just posted a Star article from 1985 to show we were talking about Goodbye Natalie way back when. It wasn't easy to get a publisher to support our efforts, but every editor and publishing house executive we met with through the years believed us unconditionally. The polygraph test was never asked of us. Publishers had reasons beyond their good-conscience why they couldn't take on this story. This book is something I will never apologize for because I wrote with the conviction of its truth. I am terribly sorry that it's such a dark story, but that is beyond my control. I would love to write about Natalie because she really was something. I don't think anyone has yet to really capture her special magic. But, what I did write is the part of her story that crossed my path. Believe me, I've asked WHY?! I felt compelled to do the best I could with it and that's what I did.Marti Rullihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16585177424159444524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3866262301035927730.post-36678126644810484572010-05-11T10:01:52.131-04:002010-05-11T10:01:52.131-04:00Some of these reviewers are new to this.

It's not a biography but that's not a bad idea, Marti. <br />You should write a book about Natalie.

Those extra pages were necessary for the book's credibility.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
