I'm glad to find you here. It means a lot that you like my stories.<br /><br />Jambo, Lovely to meet you. I must ask Cheryl what is expected of a hostess. It sounds like fun.<br /><br />Laurel, Thank you. Due to your recent 'urging', I have been serious about the 2nd draft. Yesterday, mid story, it changed - for the better. I'll have to rewrite a couple of early chapters but there's meat in the story now. <br /><br />Edith, Thanks for stopping by. Re my advice, it ain't easy. Do as I say not what I do :)<br /><br />Pat, Hi! I wish I'd written 'The Scarlet Pimpernel'. It had everything, even humour, to keep the reader enthralled. Okay, the wip file is open before me...I'm back to it. :) Thanks for the push.<br /><br />Renee, I read A Tale of Two Cities as an adult, having ignored it at school. Now I recommend it to anyone with an interest in the French Revolution or good literature. I bought it for my teenage granddaughter, last year. She is still on the first sentence. hahaha. That is a turn off. I'm looking forward to the Kit Lit Blog Hop. <br />Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00435753141533984134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581431813017394324.post-57071963069703472772013-05-01T11:13:24.145-06:002013-05-01T11:13:24.145-06:00What a diversity of books Wendy has written thus f...What a diversity of books Wendy has written thus far. I also chuckled when I read that she enjoys reading A Tale of Two Cities. This in light of my on-going discussions with someone who keeps insisting that Captain Underpants is under-appreciated and under-valued as literature and art.

Wendy, <i>The Scarlet Pimpernel</i> is one of my all-time favorite stories, one that truly entertains and inspires, with all its adventure and romance. I thoroughly enjoyed your <i>Unhewn Stone</i> as well. It really transported me to a new world packed with adventure. Keep sweating blood over those WIPs! Best of the best to you, and to you, Cheryl.

The Unhewn Stone and love the shorter stories as well. What a variety of genres and topics. Can't wait to read a mystery sprung from your creative mind.
