That rainy night was the luckiest night of my life. And I would say all these nice things even if Jane wasn’t the editor of this book!

It was wonderful to be young and on the town in New York. It would be even more wonderful, Jane and I thought, if we could find jobs we liked.

Jane was just out of college. She was starting to look for work. I had a job. But writing about root beer wasn’t exactly what I’d dreamed of doing.

Even when the editor of Soft Drink Industry took me into his office to tell me, “Bob, there’s a world of communication in bottle caps!” He was so excited. He held out a bottle cap so I could see the advertising message written inside the cap.

I’m sure the editor noticed that I wasn’t exactly jumping up and down.

What he didn’t notice, however, was that I used my spare moments to read the want ads.

Just as there were many good things happening in my life at this time, there were also big changes in the rest of the Stine family. My brother, Bill, met Megan, his wife-to-be. They were both students at Ohio State. And they both worked on Sundial. Bill was editor. He planned to become a writer, too. They stayed in Columbus for several months, lived in San Francisco awhile, then moved to New York.

My dad retired, and he and Mom moved out to Northern California. My sister, Pam, moved with them. After college, she married, and she and her husband, Kelvin, still live on the West Coast.
