At present, John’s life has be- come a bit more settled and he is kicking an idea for a novel around in his mind. “I started with only a title— ‘Invitation to Kill’,” he said. “It’s a story of a veteran who engages 66 72 58 76 59 71 63 76 60 57 a7 in a contest with a bored mil- lionaire game hunter. The contest is to see which can track dowh and kill the other one.” John has registered his idea and has even completed a short treat- ment of it.
