Re: Whats my line?

No to everything except to Olinguito's question. I would say the answer to that question is yes, I think.

Re: Whats my line?

Re: Whats my line?

Yes, maybe and no (in order).

What do you mean by a technical field.

Re: Whats my line?

Hi bobbym

That is not exactly a yes or no question.

Hi Agnishom

A qualified no, he never actually wrote a novel.

Re: Whats my line?

That was just the explanation for technical field you requested. This was the question.

Does he write about a technical field?
