Hello and thank you for writing my reading! Wouldn’t be as much fun otherwise. And yes – DC’s poem DID end up in it!

Crap! Cuttlefish beat me to it!!

(What do you want to wager that one, or some, of Cuttlefish’s poems will make the cut as well?)

Anyway – Congrats! I am envious of people that can write as well as you do – on the other hand – I just get to enjoy reading!!

Oh, bodice-ripper writings are great fun! I’ve had Year 10 students with the assignment requirements of ‘just write a chapter’ end up writing lots and lots, because the characterization and language-crafting draws them in.
Christopher – you might like to check out the Durrell book I mention, perhaps the bit on scorpions was from that autobiography?

I’ve always wanted to write a real boddice-ripper.

I don’t know where to begin, but I’ve written my own defense of romance novels (after all, I work in a library and the Romance Writers Of America Association annually selects a Librarian Of The Year–promoting both romance and libraries). I’m appalled, though, that I missed hearing about Dr. Tatiana’s book, and that, of all my friends, none of them ever heard about it or mentioned it to me. Well, at least you’ve pointed me in the direction of Gerald Durrell, who I’m pretty sure wrote a story I read many, many, many, many years ago in school about his fascination with scorpions…and his family’s inexplicable dislike of them!
