Don't forget...he is even more famous for GIL THORP!
(and here's the proof)

Great conference! Jerry Jenkins recommended that all writers own a copy of Strunk & White's The Elements of Style, and the LU bookstore actually had almost a dozen copies of it in stock. I bought one and Jerry even autographed it for me. Mrs. Cider got lots of pics with Jerry Jenkins, so look for those to appear later on Facebook.

All the writers were housed in the Mansion over the weekend, and they were really impressed with the Bed & Breakfast atmosphere of the Mansion.
