WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT DUTCH ON DUTCH:
"...a fantastic interviewamazingly rich and informative and wonderfully telling of his character."Victoria Best, Tales from the Reading Room
"He really was such an amazing man. The attitudes and approaches to writing he expresses are always entirely consistent and he has a way of demystifying the process, treating it not as being some gift from the gods, nor as being easy but as a craft that has to be worked at."Bill Kirton, author of The Figurehead
About what he calls his "checkered past," LoCicero says:
"At one time or another I've found work as an industrial spy; a producer of concert videos for Rolling Stone's greatest singer of all time; one of the few male contributors to Gloria Steinem's Ms. Magazine; a writer of an appellate brief for those convicted in one of Detroit's most sensational drug trials; the author of a true crime book that garnered a bigger advance than a top ten best-selling American novel; a project coordinator/fundraiser for a humanities council; a small business owner; the writer/producer/director of numerous long-form documentaries; a golf course clerk; a college instructor who taught courses in advanced composition, music and poetry appreciation, introduction to philosophy, remedial English, and American Literature--all in the same term; a ghostwriter; a maker of corporate/industrial videos; a member of a highway surveying crew; a speechwriter for auto executives; a TV producer of live event specials; an editorial writer; the creator of 15-second corporate promos for the PBS series Nature; and a novelist.
"There is a sense in which that last occupation was the reason for all the others. Almost anyone who's ever tried to make ends meet as a novelist
