Publisher's Synopsis
Official Obituary Retraction (Temporary)-Mark Twain More than a few years ago, I announced that the reports of my demise were greatly exaggerated...which only proved to be a temporary truth, until April 21, 1910. However, I have managed to make a special arrangement with God to come back, as The Ghost of Mark Twain to take care of a few loose ends that I neglected to handle when I was on earth the first time. So, I am officially retracting my April, 1910 obituary and placing it on hold until a future undetermined date. All of my prior accomplishments and works have been stolen or have expired for monetary compensation. So, I will soon re-embark on a sustenance agenda that may involve temporary basic hourly wage until I can again establish a more appropriate and suitable source of income, based upon more writings that I left undone and any that I can conjure up and sell to achieve respectable accommodations which I was formerly used to. The last 100+ years have not been pleasant for me, primarily because of my scallywaggery in the prior two centuries. I have been subjected to divine restitution and part of the reason I'm back is to fulfill a specially-arranged, alternative method of completing that process in order to be worthy of getting past the Pearly Gates next time around. But all that is explained in my new book, dictated to and told by a generally truthful Mr. John J. Hawthorne, Esq.: The Ghost of Mark Twain-The Divine Community Service Agreement with God. As for me, I have some catchin' up to do with everything that has gone on in the last 100+ years and will tell you all about some things I learned first-hand which you should know about for your own good. Because all of my debts and financial obligations had been taken care of prior to the April, 1910 "departure," I don't owe anybody anything and plan to go forward with a clean slate, even though I am currently a little short on funds...and cigars. One redeeming and especially good aspect of returning as The Ghost of Mark Twain is that I do not currently have one enemy in the world, having "outlived" all the S.O.B.s. Notation from John J. Hawthorne, Esq.: more details on this official obituary retraction are available in The Ghost of Mark Twain, available at Amazon Kindle Books.
