My so-called "writing" is sporadic, whenever a topic strikes me and I feel like writing it up, prose or poetry. Topics are getting fewer and fewer.

Once did, several years ago. Did my 50,000 words, rcvd my diploma. It was a tough go, and impacted my every day for a month. Tried again last year, stalled, no luck. Will pass up this year. Good luck to you. :)

Both of those sound like great services! :D

And we do have other discussions also, only tangentially book-induced. :D Big welcome Peder

Oh you scalawag! :D Just like when we try to buy just one book when we go into a bookstore. :rolleyes:

I like that attitude! Man after my own heart. :D

Very sorry to say, I came away from my reread disappointed. :(

Oh ho! The plot thickens. All Souls might have been the one I dropped out of, partway. Have to do some digital archaeology around here. :D.

It sounds like everyone loves it who reads it.

Ah hah! Yes, indeed. I binged on all three volumes of Your Face Tomorrow in 2010 (?), and Infatuations more recently. Maybe some others, but I'd have to resurrect some reading lists to know for sure. (There has been a computer changeover here and files are all over the place. :( ) But yes, I...
