Marijane Meaker is one of the annual returnees to Gary Lovisi's New York
paperback fair. Give him a call if you want information on her. I'm
sure that he would make it possible for you to contact her
somehow/way.
She's quite approachable from what I remember.

Also, keep an eye out for a book by her that was published by
McFadden, "Take a Lesbian to Lunch." Major score if you come up with
this one. The author doesn't even have a copy. Heard of one selling
for $700.00 a couple years ago.

How many holy shit's are there in "egads"?
