"Don't Panic" is great, but if you're ready for a REALLY deep dive into the life and creative process of Douglas Adams, check out "The Frood," which came out last year, and which includes excerpts of unpublished drafts from his hard copy notes. (Digital rough drafts have previously been published in the posthumous "Salmon of a Doubt.") "The Frood" may be more than you want to know about his personal life, but it explains a lot to do with how schizophrenic the last two books were and other issues, including how many times the "you might think it's a long way to the chemist's" bit was used before it became part of Hitchhikers. Well worth the read.

Thanks, Beau. I hadn't seen that one come through. Might have to give it a shot. Yeah, probably don't need all the personal stuff, but I'm sure it neatly intersects with those last two books in some crazy ways. Going to add it to the old Amazon Wish List now!
