Geraldine Brooks...

She's the one who wrote "Year of Wonders." Down to the last couple of chapters...and still a great read. Check it out.

Back Again...

So...it's been a month since I've taken time to write anything here. First the holidays. Then recovery from the holidays. Then a major professional event to prepare for. It all adds up to not enough time to think and write.

As usual, I've got about four books going. One which I'd really recommend is "Year of Wonders." Can't remember the author's name right now, but it's definitely worth looking up...especially if you like historical fiction. Don't want to give too much away, so here are a few clues: 1666, England, Annus Mirabilis. A bit of history checking first will likely whet your appetite for this one. Great read.
