The Hawkline Monster is my favorite.

I agree. I'm also a fan of Trout Fishing in America, a great character.

Are you discussing Richard Brautigan? I remember
really liking his work when I was younger- and he
seemed to represent the time period. Then I reread
some of his work years later, after I was an established
writer, and I was disappointed- like what was so great?

I'm chuckling, recalling a book about book proposal writing that goes into depth using a specific example of a successful book proposal.

Believe it or not, the book used in the example was something like, "A Woman's Guide to Trouser Trout" and it was about finding a man, sort of a The Rules but with a fishing analogy.
