Still busy busy busy, but hopefully almost to the point where I can actually announce Good Writing News. Watch this space...
88. Weird Things Customers Say in Bookstores, by Jen Campbell.
Exactly what the title says it is, and hilarious, too.
89. A manuscript by my critique partner, Rose Lerner. Assuming her publisher accepts it, y'all may be able to read it in, oh, November 2014 or so. So for now I won't say anything other than that it's beautifully written and different. However, she does have a new release scheduled for March that I can highly recommend, too.
90. The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, by Muriel Spark.
This isn't my usual type of book--I'm more about the smart genre fiction than Noted Works of Literature. But I heard an interesting discussion of the book on NPR, and I'm glad I gave it a try. I wouldn't say I enjoyed it, exactly, but it made me think. I'm not sure what to think of the book, or of Jean Brodie, but I expect I'll be turning it over in my mind for some time to come.
