No, it is a different John Wooley. The John Wooley in
question here is a writer for the TULSA WORLD and a long-time
fan and expert on hard-boiled writing and pulp culture in
general. And a hell of a good guy. He and I went to college
together a long time ago, and it was he who opened a lot of
doors for me when he gave me a paperback of FAREWELL, MY
LOVELY with the simple instructions: Read it. John's
collaborated with Ron Wolfe on a couple of pretty interesting
neo-pulp sorts of novels. Here's an interview with him at
amazon.com.

sometimes shows up here)
