Needs a lot more work[edit]

For a well-known essayist and writer, this is a very meager wikipedia offering. I would like to think that it gets expanded into something approaching a biography that does this fine writer justice. If I can help do that, I will. Regards,MarmadukePercy (talk) 04:42, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
