(2) A typed letter signed from editorial director at Bloomsbury, Karen Rinaldi, to "Jeremy" dated 13 October 1998 wherein she writes to LeRoy to say "Here is a edited version of METEOR. I am sending the hard copy showing the cuts, as well as the story with the cuts made. The story is incredibly powerful, some of your best writing so far. Funny, poignant, skillful. Keep at it. Let me know what you think of the cuts. I'd like to send this out to a few places".

By age 18, he had published his first novel entitled "Sarah". The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things is his second book and first story collection. A one-of -a -kind archive from a rising literary star.
