NYT article[edit]

I noticed the New York Times led off their article with a shot at ours. We can't have that! :-) Expanded a bit, with sources. I notice later this article used to be longer, and better written than I made it[1], but it was mostly a direct crib from Powell's[2] which we can't have that either. --GRuban (talk) 04:15, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Erotic fiction?[edit]

Does he write erotic fiction? I just came across (not literally) a novel by a Don Winslow called Slave Girls of Rome. 86.144.25.251 (talk) 14:10, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No he doesn't. As far as I know, the erotic novels (there are more than just this slave thing) are some kind of community projects that are made available under Don's name - beats me as to why ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by MB D (talk • contribs) 22:07, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Other source material[edit]

In this article, the author opens up about how he works. Worth reading even if none of the details end up in the article. 75.36.176.4 (talk) 21:15, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2016 book?[edit]

Is there a new book due shortly? In Germany, a book called 'Germany' is to be relased on March 1st, 2016, but I cannot find any mention of an original (English) version of this either on Don's website or on amazon.com. Any information someone? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.2.191.207 (talk) 13:02, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

controversies[edit]

i created a new section titled 'controversies' based on current events and with proper citation, it was undone by an unregistered editor whose explanation was that it was right wing propaganda. i resent that accusation. everything i wrote was true and verifiable. and i am far from right wing. even if i were, however, so what? is there anyone who can give me a good reason for not including a controversies sud section?
