Even adults will read -- if it is "Fifty Shades of Grey." Couldn't resist :D It generated some reader interest, I dare say.

That's why no comment. I hope it engages my attention better the further it goes along.:oops:

Just an observation, and I'm not sure how it fits in. Shame may keep some from reading. I don't know what to say about that. But I think that, for anyone who actually wants to find a book to read, it has never been easier. The proliferation of genres and kinds of writng seems to me to have...

I'm about 30% done. No comment until 100%. But spoilers don't bother me, so proceed with discussion if you wish. :)

Appalling. My jaw is hanging open, my brain has stopped dead in its tracks, and my fingers are almost limp and not functioning. Maybe everyone else is in the same condition -- or else watching the Superbowl. But maybe it will be great to be completely electronified -- based on our happy...

Makes me feel like reading it. I have tended more toward Roth, only a couple Bellow. Thanks

Umm, Poison Study? :D

We'll all be there cheering when you cross the line. :)

Hi, Sparhawk! Thank you sincerely for the nice compliment. I especially appreciate the "great." :D I don't think I have heard that before. Hah, Gita! Never thought of that. There lies the direction for a better poem. Yours, and I hope to hear it. :) Thank you both for taking the time...

And many thanks, Sandra, too for the kind words. :)

Many thanks, Meadow. Makes it feel just like a birthday. :) Yippees! Peder 6000

Where do the big numbers come from? Where has all the time gone? Ages, waists, weights, posts, all. They creep up slowly, unnoticed, But then they are there. As if in only a blink from then 'til now. One can hardly believe it. At that rate, just think! A whole new lifetime In the blink ahead...
