Upon receiving his acceptance for a second time, John asked, “As the author, can my name be listed as ‘John Frank Weaver?’ It, quite frankly, is a ridiculous distinction; no one calls me that. However (and I’m not making this up) it helps my mother google my pieces. There apparently are a million John Weavers out there and only one with a Frank in the middle. She actually complained last month.” We’ll do anything for John’s mom. Hi Ms. Weaver!
