Don't count on it. James Reasoner is still writing, but mostly
work for
hire in the Western historical vein with his wife under lots of
names.
His best story (I'll get the name for you) was in a vampire
collection
and was about the cow going to the butcher and then there was
the one
about the gay-troup of vets at the Alamo. I thought they were a
hoot,
but I have a weird sense of humour. His classic novel, long of
out print
and expensive as a gold when you can find it, is TEXAS WIND,
which took
place in Fort Worth where he turned a city map over and upside
down and
had everyone driving all over town looking for the sites in the
book.
He also edited the Mike Shayne magazine at one time. I have an
interview
if anyone is interested (wait until I learn how to scan in and
link,
etc) which is really very short (only a page). He also did a
series
featuring a Western Judge who was a former stage coach guard
who became
a lawyer then a judge. Only two in the series that were very
good.
