I appreciate your website. Your writing is wonderful!

[Phil Traina]

Harry, you seem to have a talent to select wonderful individuals to write about -- "The Remarkable Skeeter Swift." It is a pleasure to read and re-read your material. Thanks.

Harry,

You need to go on the road. You really are a very effective communicator. Your accent, combined with the power of the pen, create a mix for a real winner. Keep up the good work, and may your day be more productive than you ever dreamed.

Your Good Friend,

Pastor Dan Brockman

Hi, dear Harry,
Memorial Day brings back a flood of memories of my husband's service, particularly when he fought in the Korean War! What a horrible war it was!

I don't want to be presumptuous, with your great schedule of writing for so many publications, but would you care to read an article I wrote, & Charisma published it, about "Three Egert Generations who went to War, & Came Home Alive?" If so, kindly direct me to the correct address.
Thank you!

If you are too busy at this time, I'll certainly understand, & I'll put it on the back burner until after Novermber this year. God bless you & your family & work!
In Christ,
Ruth (Mercer) Egert

Hello, Harry,
I just received a copy of your article in the Commonwealth Conversations for May 2008.

I do not know if you'll remember me or not, but my husband and I met you umpteen years ago, through local friends like Scott Hessek and his wife, and others, in the Tidewater area.

I really enjoyed reading, "The View from Capitol Square." Your statement made me chuckle when I read, "I GOT OFF THE PORCH, TRIED TO MAINTAIN a bit of dignity. I made one more attempt to find out just why this woman had little good to say of me." We need to laugh more, so keep on writing both the serious and the humorous side of things! We all enjoy it immensely!

If Philip were here, he'd gladly join me, too. He is with the Lord whom he loved and served!

Some folks have
The gift of the Gab,
Harry has the gift of the Gabble.
You start out on one thing,
Change gears twice
So it looks like you're playing Scrabble.
But then you bring it all together
And suddenly it all makes sense.
I'm glad you called that kid out at home
His hit didn't make it over the fence!

Scott,
Thanks for your witty poem. I suppose now you’ve enjoyed poetic license. Your delightful comments are always welcome.

Harry, I know you will be surprised to know I read your column often. How I love to watch you write. Your neice, Donna

Dear Rev. Covert,
I was just reading an article on one website and accidently I did click on a link and was very surprised to discover your website. I like the article about your trip in the Congo, Zaire at that time.
Many blessings.

Harry, just a note to say Happy Holidays and hugs and kisses to you and the family. Always know that you forever remain special to Alfred and I. May the grace and peace of God continue to envelope you. You are one in a million, let nothing change that!! I'm excited about all God is doing in and through you....2008 IS GOING TO BE GREAT!!

[Ken Barnett]

Harry:
I'm delighted to meet you over the phone. I think that you have come upon an extremely worthy project in the Skeeter Swift story.

'Remember the Titans' was a great team story. The Skeeter Swift story is a wonderful story of a boy with many disadvantages who didn't let anything hold him back. I look forward to your work.

[Jim Gay]

Harry, Really like you webpage. Your writing has improved since the fifth grade - - Ha!
Regards, Jim Gay

[Chriss Liden]

Harry, we enjoy the positive input of the experiences of your life into ours. God bless

[Don Wheeler]

Harry I met you years ago in Australia while you were traveling with Ron Godwin. You took myself and a group of students with you to the reef for a few days. Good to see you are still at it.

[Ken Jarvis]

We are in-debt to Falwell for what HE did to change Politicks.
But, we REALLY OWE HARRY for reminding us of how dedicated Falwell was.

Thanks, Harry.

Harry,

My children grew up watching Ric Flair and so I particularly liked the article about him. Definitely a showman. So in that context my only comment would have to be Whoooooooo!!!

World Peace,
Tom Hill

Enjoyable reading Harry. You have certainly had some great experiences, and we are better off because you shared them with us.

Dear Mr. Editor,

Three things.

1. How many people in USA know that Scotland Yard is "merely" London's own police force, and NOT a national police force?

2. Such is British bonding at times like this that police cars from Wales were standing guard over Scotland Yeard Hdqtrs this morning, so London bobbies could be out and about.

3. Western leaders have no such power over Arabs leaders, who simply would say, "OK, no more oil". Who will West (read US) get oil from> Chavez? Putin? Fearless neighbor Mexico? What about natural gas? UK's domestic supplies run out in two years ... North Sea will be totally tapped. We have trapped ourselves into this mess because the tree huggers don't want the Alabama Snowshoe Moose to get dislodged from its caves on the Alaskan tundra.

Your faithless correspondent in London,

Dr. J

I've enjoyed Harry Covert's writing for a longtime. His piece on Bounty Hunting was funny stuff and his column, I Paid To Vote, really made me think. Keep it up. I hope he writes more daily columns and posts regularly his At Large stories.

Want to Read Some Great Writing?

Many have enjoyed reading Dr. Harry Covert's The Covert Letter for decades, now you can do the same online with this new web site format, which will soon be available in subscription form here and at http://www.thecovertletter.com .

It has been published that "Dr. Covert's writing style is reminiscent of H. Allen Smith. Covert, a real journalist of the old school, has met many interesting people. He once interviewed a couple doing a popular puppet show for children on local TV who the rest of us would one day know as Jim and Tammy Bakker. Covert has also been a baseball team owner, a missionary to Africa and a Virginia State Senate candidate. The man has stories to tell and tells them well. Enjoy!"
