Hi I am steadily working through a novel Is anyone else doing the same who would like me to critique theres if they could do the same for me. Or just give some points of view on it.

Just now i am on a sticking point at tenses when writing and not sure if what i have written is working well.

Ho hum...

Not much happening here today...

30th Wedding Anniversary

It's ours - today. Me and the missis. Never known how to refer to her - nor she to me. We hate husband/wife. We dislike the pious 'partner' - we're married! 'The other half' 'him/her indoors' and all the other euphemisms have drawbacks. Maybe I'll just stick to her name - Chrisa.

Still, it's an achievement I reckon. And we have three lovely grown-up kids who still talk to us, who live independent and fulfilling lives and who go merrily along, making their own mistakes but not often repeating ours.

I feel very special today.

I went to the dentist the other day... by will2

I love this!

It's just so... irreverent. Don't know what it's part of, or even if it is part of anything, or if it simply is what it is - a rant about the exuberant cost of dentistry. I don't even know if it's meant to be funny, but it made me laugh. Feels somewhat like a standup routine - cf. Jack Dee or the like.

Anyway, whatever it's "meant" to be, keep'em coming, will2!

Alice and Death by Lisa

Brilliantly written, Lisa! And clever too, going into the Finnish Mythology

Dissertation

I am trying desperately to track down the following books for my dissertation. I have managed to find them on Amazon but they are hugely expensive and way out of my price league. If anyone has any ideas I would be grateful to hear them.

Many thanks

'The Annotated Wizard of Oz' by Michael Patrick Hearn

'Wizard of Oz By L.Frank Baum- American Culture and Society' by W. Leach

'Over The Rainbow. Wizard of Oz as a Secular Myth of America.' by Nathanson and Young.

Where's Bob Roberts?

Could do with a chin up...

Hope the freak famous grouse fuelled country house explosion headline had nothing to do with him.
