And all from a little story...

Interesting advice, Stewart, which reminds me of another immensely useful one you gave me: Block or Recovery

Pretty good, novella. Catching dialogue, original. Must be part of something more, as Ell suggested? A novel, perhaps? Mh'h.

Not if they are reputable. If you have no agent to go over your work before it reaches the publisher, and are not pre-commissioned by a given publisher for a given work, you might need someone professional to look it over before submitting it for consideration. I've had three different ones...

Tell me about it!

Hiya chase!

Apparently, much of the book was written not in Cornwall, her domicile, but in a fierce Egyptian summer where she was both homesick and loathe to her wifely duties. This with a 'guilt sense of ineptitude' reflects aspects of Du Marier's own complex personality in her two characters, so Beauman...

Great works, I keep for life. Else donate to charity. Amazon marketplace is a good place to sell old books, if you wish; never tried it though.

For one with a day job, internet 100%, with supertech sensors, as a lot of trash filters in the web too.

Count me in. Halcyon's got a point. I read 'Shadow of the Lynx' 15 years ago, perhaps more - please don't ask my age - and recently purchased it and read it with as much enjoyment as I did then.

Who, What defines 'great' Stew hun! The media? A nobel prize? Ever lifted a top twenty on Amazon and thought it sucked? Well, then. A writer - perhaps not yet 'great' by your standards? - that comes to mind is Deborah Lawrenson. Self-published 'The Art of Falling' through Stamp, in...

I love a good dunk with a bottle of wine - to formulate great thoughts :cool: , not to read them. Furthermore, for one who loves the smell of new books, quite a kick, actually - not a fetish, mind you, they are too precious to risk ruining.

Does seem like it, doesn't it?

Hope you enjoy it! :)

Like you, Ell, I'm just me. Hard to be otherwise without a pseudonym, but I prefer it this way. Hay82: you are quite amiable. Novella: No staples, please. You're doing just fine - shooting off your thoughts and coming up with good threads.

... penetrating my fog is very good imagery, well complemented by the next sentence. Ebba's a rather nice name.

Ah! A good writer. Passionate too.

Flogging a dead and mummified horse. Last I stepped into a library was to do research on a thesis. Now I can do it online, and I wouldn't trust most libraries to stock what I want to read in the line of fiction. Bloody pain bringing a book back each time you borrow.

True. The rhyming's good all round. It could do with a bit more imagery and more compression, though. Why butterflies? Is it an anticipation? Fear? Of what?
