Scope and content
Describes his thanksgiving holidays with his parents. Informs Beaton that his book, "Blood Dues", has been out about six weeks and has got rave reviews. Discusses the other night when he went drinking with a "handsome guy". Has written an article about Ruth for "After Dark" magazine and would like to know if Beaton would give his permission to let them use the picture he took of her. His book was named one of the Notable Books of the Year by the Sunday Times. Will be in London in February when the book is published. Hopes to see Beaton then. Will think of Beaton in "wet, oilless, shivering London" when he is in Florida. Asks Beaton if he got the snapshots of himself, Beaton and Ruth.
