James was the bus driver on our wine tour in San Francisco. I told James, when I took his picture, that I was going to blog about him. See how happy he looks? Ha.
The tour left from the pier in San Francisco in the morning. As we drove through San Francisco on our way out of town, James gave us some history of the city and famous landmarks that we passed. About 15 minutes into the tour, he told us about the richest part of town and the mansions there, and one house in particular.
“The largest mansion belongs to an author—and I use the term loosely—Danielle Steel.”
Yes, he “used the term loosely”. I guess all those books she wrote don’t qualify her as an author. All those books that earned her that money that bought that mansion.
I’m not a fan of DS, but I would never say she wasn’t an author.
What a dis.

Geez, my blood would have boiled
Ms Steele has pissed off many many SF folks for her to put it nicely “local antics”. Exemptions from parking violations and such.So you might have just had an example of her local infamy there. I don’t think it has anything to do with what the fact she is a writer as much as the fact she has the reputation of mud.
