So thank you Jefferey Pace for asking the same question!

And thank you everyone for weighing in

Thank you especially "eyeblink" and "maestrowork" – I immediately bought Red Shift and No Country For Old Men

(Also put The Friday Society on my wish list for later. Looks like a movie crying out for three leading ladies!)

For anyone else wondering about dialogue driven novels...

That's funny

When I was writing my novel, I used to ask if I could just patch in the dialogue later

Interesting way to have found this forum. I found it googling a small start up publishing house to see if it was a scam or not. Apparently E64 looks pretty shady to most.
