I watched a season of 'Emily in Paris' on your recommendation. I'm afraid I'm 25 years too old to be interested in yet another pixie-size American ingenue. I enjoyed the first two seasons of 'Ally Mcbeal' when I was about 30-years-old (Google it-it's similar but not in Paris).
I do enjoy the rest of your writing. I'm not quite ready for 'Last of the Summer Wine,' though.
Some speculation is perhaps par for the course re the tragic case of Amber Nicole Thurman - since as far as I know only ProPublica has seen the mortality review (unless you have Helen, in which case I apologise). We don't know for sure if the doctors delayed her D&C due to fear of a lawsuit. I also wonder if the abortion clinic should have given her pills if they knew she was pregnant with twins (are abortion pills generally ok for twins? how does that affect the dosage? is the 5 percent of cases requiring a D&C generally multiple fetuses? Did they properly explain to her the risks?).
Clearly, if Amber had been able to access an abortion more easily, her tragic death would not have occurred. But I think it might be necessarily to place some of the blame onto mis/disinformation (that Georgia bans D&Cs; that abortion pills are ALWAYS safe) as well.
I'm speaking as someone who is very pro-life and anti-abortion bans, and has also had a life-saving D&C (after a miscarriage) - Amber's case is heartbreaking and I can only imagine how her family are feeling about her preventable death.
Without a doubt the best part about writing a book is finishing writing the book.

Thank you for shinning a light on the tragic and awful case of Amber Nicole Thurman and others. I am raging!
Shogun was as excellent as you've heard. Hope you enjoy it!
