My favorite books: I read pretty much everything because I love the printed word. My favorite books are those that inform or develop my mind. Yes...I am a bit of geek when it comes to knowledge but then that is why I have a University education and the compulsion to keep on learning. My most favorite of favorite literature...of course...are my own books. My novels really do entertain me. I am surprised when I re-read something I wrote that I haven't looked at in a long time. I can't believe that I wrote such a good story.
My favorite quote:
"To be or not to be! That is the question my dear Yorrick!"
I have been writing all my life. I started out writing poetry, one act murder mystery plays, science fiction and fantasy, fairy tales, and romance when I grew older, a lot of non-fiction in my twenties, then serious writing when I overcame writer's block in my thirties. I have stretched my talents to include many genres just for the practice to develop many writing styles. I always love a challenge when it comes to the use of my imagination.
Hi Marion: I've seen no response from anyone regarding the subject of 'Historical Fiction' in a discussion group. I would like to submit 'Sands of Time' to this group. It is a lengthy novel and few have taken the time to read it, but those that did were pleasantly surprised at the story and the writing. I would recommend anyone to check out those who have read and commented on it. Some of the characters in the novel are quite complex and could generate interesting perspectives from those with a decent literary background. It's a damn good book and deserves discerning eyes.
I'm getting some fine reviews from readers of my book, 'Sands of Time' It's length might discourage many, but anyone seeking to read a good well written story should give it a try. They will not be disappointed.
Thanks for the invitation to be friends. I gladly accept! And I really enjoy your writing; it's so much more real life to me than others here on Bookrix...
