My family has a connection to the HBO Miniseries The Pacific, which starts tomorrow night, March 14, as I described in an essay for the Shadow Work email newsletter.

Here's the essay. You'll find the letter mentioned on page 62 of the paperback edition of Practically Shameless. (In chapter 5 on audio CD.)

I'll be watching the miniseries at the home of a family member who has HBO, I expect it to be a moving experience.
