Wanted: Ian Fleming Memories
Tell us how you discovered Ian Fleming...
As part of Absolutely James Bond's celebration of the Centenary of Ian Fleming's birth, we want to know how you became a Fleming fan. Did you see the movies first, and decide to read the books to see where it all started? Did you pick up From Russia With Love because it made President John F. Kennedy's Top Ten list? Or did you stumble across a copy of You Only Live Twice at a second-hand paperback shop, and decide to give it a try?
Where were you the first time you picked up a Fleming James Bond Novel? How old were you? Was it a Christmas or birthday gift, or an 'impulse buy' at the local bookstore? Which one did you read first? What did you think of how the books compared to the movies?
Help us celebrate the 100th birthday of the man who gave us one of the greatest fictional characters in history. Tell us your Ian Fleming story---post on the 'Ian Fleming Memories' thread in the Literary Forum. The best of your comments will appear in a forthcoming AJB article!
