To all Michael's loyal fans

Having been his friend for over 25 years, I am more than aware of how much you meant to him and how many of you stuck with him through the good times and the bad. Michael always told me he would be nowhere without his fans. The fans inspired him in his creativity. I am aware of how difficult it must be for all of you coming to terms with Michael’s death. I agree with Deborah that it is about time that there was a book chronicling the uniqueness and creativity of Michael’s fans and as such I am giving her my full backing in this venture.  I know that had he been here Michael would have approved.

Please give Deborah every help and support to enable her to get your stories, picture, photos and poetry out to the world!

Thank you,

Mark Lester
