	Review \| The Red Hot Typewriter by Hugh Merrill
		John Dann MacDonald, who was born in 1916 in Pennsylvania and died in 1986 in a Wisconsin hospital, after what was to have been routine bypass surgery, was a fiction-writing phenomenon.
		And then, John D. MacDonald, "in the voice of the most vitriolic Puritan preacher," writes a letter to his sister in 1969 "that makes Cotton Mather seem gentle," bluntly calling her a "self-destructive drinker" and warning her, "You need help" (which he offers to give).
		Undoubtedly, John D. MacDonald had his faults and a person's flaws and failings must be included in a serious examination of a life.

	Authors and Creators: John D. MacDonald
		Travis McGee, John Dann MacDonald was one of the last of the old pulpsters to continue writing fiction successfully, making a name for himself in the burgeoning paperback market of the fifties, and continuing to appear on the bestseller lists well into the eighties in fact.
		MacDonald served as president of The Mystery Writers of America, and was elected a Grand Master in 1972.
		I loved it because he was the first modern writer to nail Florida dead-center, to capture all its languid sleaze, racy sense of promise, and breath-grabbing beauty...For me and many natives (of Florida), some of McGee's finest moments were when he paused, mid-adventure, to inveigh against the runaway exploitation of this rare and dying paradise.
