The following are feedback letters to our very popular series Roving with Lalah which now appears every Tuesday.

  • Keeping me in high spirits

    Dear Robert:

    I've spoken to you previously via AOL about your book before it came out. I just got back from Montego Bay (mi barn place) two weeks ago and I am truly homesick. I look forward to Tuesdays when I can read your articles and get a likkle taste of home. Thank you for these tidbits because they keep me in high spirits and 'membrance' of yawd.

    Regards,

    A.W.

  • You made my mom laugh

    Dear Robert:

    My mom bought your new book the other day and she laughed so hard, after which she bought a second copy for her sister. I'm at boarding school now, and when I go home for holidays, we read your stories together and laugh.

    I just wanted to write you to say that your work is absolutely amazing! I have many passions, one of which is writing. You inspire me to write even more, especially about my Jamaica (that I miss so much). Thank you for making my mom laugh, and letting us create these memories ... you truly inspire me!

    Sincerely,

    D.B.
