	"I sort of wish he [William Goldman] would do another book like
	THE PRINCESS BRIDE (a hysterically funny parody of romance and
	adventure novels -- highly recommended) but I'll take what I
	can get."

Goldman didn't write "The Princess Bride"; rather, he edited it from
the work of a Renaissance Italian author.  [Or so he says in the
introduction.]

On the other hand, he certainly has the potential to write this sort of
work, as can be seen in his screenplay, "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance
Kid".
