@evelyn I was checking out your blog but I can’t comment b/c I don’t use Google.
Anyway, I hope you don’t mind my asking about your wonderful volume of Sherlock Holmes – What’s the ISBN and where did you find it?! Does it have all the illustrations?! I’ve been looking for one for forever. π -

Well, maybe we can start out by asking if you know of any good books/sites I should refer to for nutrition info? π
What YA are you reading right now? Somtimes writers can learn even from bad novels π – like what not to do. (If you don’t mind, I just recently made a Goodreads account, maybe we can share reviews/recommends? It’s okay…[Read more]

π I totally get it.
I actually watched it first as a DVD from my local library (huge moneysaver). But I received a copy as a gift earlier this year, so that’s wonderful. I’ll prob. drive my family nuts with the singing as well xD.

Hi!! Thank you so much for your welcome. I’ve never finished my reading of Hugo’s book yet… I know I should. π The musical film is awesome! Star cast as well.
Oh really?! I love reading hist fic when I actually find a good one to read. I write mostly speculative – scifi, fantasy – and have dabbled in thriller and poetry. Would…[Read more]

Hai!! Thanks for the welcome!! It’s so wonderful to see so many others who like the same cultural things as I do. π
I’ve actually applied at the end of Oct, but haven’t heard back from SE yet. I’m sure it’ll be soon, though. I can’t wait to see which guild I’ll be in! π
Yes, π I totally lol when I read the info about New Wessex

SE is saying that I’m an intermediate. But I think I’m between novice and intermed.

Thank you for your gracious understanding π

I just noticed that I completely did not address what you repliedβ¦ sorry about that. I didnβt like chemistry very much Iβm afraid. However, I loved math (calculus esp.). Your nutrition class sounds SO cool I wish I took one. Learning to be health is always a good thing, right? Currently Iβm just internet searching info on health and nutriti…[Read more]

I’m SO sorry!! I just found out that I made a mistake with this response and tags!!! π I thought I was in another thread. The part that probably makes no sense to you are paragraphs are supposed to be addressed to write-owl
Please forgive me.

YES! She was the heroine of the plot – are you relieved? π It was supposed to be thriller; it’s on hold right now but seeing your name totally reminded me that someday I need to figure it out and write it. π

BTW: Thank you for putting up with me π
Ha! You’re great. I love putting up with you. π Sadly though, the front of the Sherlock collection I have isn’t as pretty as the side. π It does have the illustrations though! I found it at a used book store actually in really good shape for one dollar. π #bestfindever Just a second and I’ll get you the ISBN number!
ISBN number: 0-7858-0088-3
@evelyn
Thank you so much!! I’m in your debt. I’ve literally looked a lot of places for the Canon with all the illustrations in it and haven’t found one I liked. π Used books are wonderful aren’t they? – I don’t think they print the complete illustrated ones anymore – just the text unfortunately.
