I take it you're all familiar with the story of the word of mouth message from the forward trenches, "Send reinforcements, we're going to advance," which reached Staff Headquarters, after being passed from mouth to mouth along the line, as the baffling, "Send three-and-sixpence, we're going to a dance."

It may be time to issue a new edition of WRITING A THRILLER.
