CarrollBlog

A smart ass book collector-friend sent me an entry they'd noticed in a rare book catalog. The dealer was selling one of my early novels autographed and was charging an obscenely expensive price. Why? Because I’m dead. Part of the catalog description reads, "Carroll lived in Europe in the 1980's and wrote three novels. He returned to the US and died a few years later." I wonder what this dealer thinks when he sees or tries to explain how Carroll has published thirteen new books since he died? Maybe he believes it's another JC. Or it is the same Carroll, only the guy wrote so much while alive that there have been enough to keep releasing them years after the author was six feet under.
