Photographer Joseph Holmes, who was given this book by his friend Dwight in 1978, calls this "the best book inscription ever." That's hyperbole, of course, but it's still very charming thanks to that last throwaway line with its totally amusing twist.

A BLOG WHEREIN WE WAX RUEFUL UPON: THINGS A WORKING WRITER WONDERS ABOUT. THINGS A WONDERING WRITER WORKS ON. WONDER-FUL WRITERS. WRITER-LY WORKS. WRITING STRATEGIES THAT WORK. WORKS WE WISH WE'D WRITTEN. ROYALTIES WE WISH WE'D RECEIVED. WRITERS WHO EAT WONDER BREAD, WEAR WONDER BRAS, OR THINK THEY'RE WONDER WOMAN. WRITERS WHO ARE WONDERS OF THE WORLD, AT LEAST IN THE WONDERLAND OF THEIR OWN MINDS. IN WRITING, THE WONDERS NEVER CEASE. BUT THEN AGAIN, NEITHER DOES THE WORK.
