I love to re-read a series; before I can do that with yours, though, I need to get them all in paperback -- I don't like switching between pb and kindle. ;-pDarlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03979866600334392422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-87556449928731365532014-12-11T23:50:11.705-05:002014-12-11T23:50:11.705-05:00Well now . . . you see how fast your stories go by...Well now . . . you see how fast your stories go by . . . and why I'm waiting here for you to dash off another five or six, say, in the next two-three months.<br />How'd that be? :-PJunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710135137635433217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-77193082211544816382014-12-11T23:17:00.877-05:002014-12-11T23:17:00.877-05:00I think it's great to go back and reread all y...I think it's great to go back and reread all your stuff. As a painter, I get to actually just look at things I've done all the time. Sometimes I think I paint things so that I can look at them and write things so that I can read them. Nothing wrong with that!Carol Crump Brynerhttp://blog.carolcrumpbryner.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-74330440332872199582014-12-11T12:12:55.967-05:002014-12-11T12:12:55.967-05:00How nice that you got at least some of the experie...How nice that you got at least some of the experience of reading your wonderful books as a reader. The snippets of short stories you give us on the blogs are most appreciated. So looking forward to your next book. At the same time, I really miss Elizabeth who, in my mind, is existing in a kind of alternate universe of suspended animation, waiting to be awakened to her continuing life. I still have hopes that will happen. The pictures of sites so familiar to us from the books were great. Whatever you write, I am confident your readers will enjoy every carefully created word.<br /><br />Lynne in GAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-8159556634588475262014-12-11T11:37:50.326-05:002014-12-11T11:37:50.326-05:00I used to write for publication (nursing education...I used to write for publication (nursing education materials) and I would sometimes return to something I had written and be surprised that I thought it was really good. I suppose a novelist returning to a book must be the same. To read your work as a genuine reader and not as a critic or writer and really enjoy it must be satisfying indeed.<br /><br />Having the benefit of reading your "thank you" short story, I more deeply appreciate your writing talents since the story went in such a totally new direction than the Elizabeth books. And was so enjoyable...in a different way.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-12820638730960913322014-12-11T11:24:49.771-05:002014-12-11T11:24:49.771-05:00Hi Vicki,

I used to think that they did -- but on re-reading, I find that, for me, there's not that big a leap -- the early books are better than I remembered.

I've gotten back into writing lately, and I'm constantly rereading as I write, but even with the eye of the author, I'm still getting pleasure in some of what I've written.
