I read a review of her latest novel a month ago, and two days after my library got ALL of her novels in e-book, and now this! I really enjoy reading about writers' processes for thinking about writing and beginning to write etc., so I'll have to check this one out and see if it inspires me to read her fiction as well. (It partly sounds right up my alley and partly sounds too frightfully lit'rary for me. :p)Jenny @ Jenny's Bookshttp://jennysbooks.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-74636224800984252362013-05-31T22:19:33.097+01:002013-05-31T22:19:33.097+01:00AL Kennedy launched the Bidford on Avon History So...AL Kennedy launched the Bidford on Avon History Society's book, 'Yesterday's Children' - so both you and she have addressed the Society!

I just posted an entry about my absolutely favorite book on writing "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser. It is a lively and entertaining guide to writing if any of your readers (or you) are interested. It is a classic.<br /><br />http://bellebookandcandle.blogspot.com/2013/05/on-writing-well-by-william-zinsser.htmlBellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04335523622158333456noreply@blogger.com
