The Llano County Mermaid Club: A Novel (Lynn and Lynda Miller Southwest Fiction Series):
"This book is an homage to literature. As a soft character novel, I enjoyed the girls’ camaraderie and imaginations. The details and imagery of the New Mexico landscape were vivid and pulled you in.
I wish there would have been more leading up to the " Read more of this review » |

of
The Llano County Mermaid Club: A Novel (Lynn and Lynda Miller Southwest Fiction Series):
"It’s difficult to keep a secret forever.
The character development was excellent. All of the main characters were well-rounded individuals whose flaws made a genuine difference in how not only their own lives but also the plot turned out. They felt li" Read more of this review » |

“All good writers write [terrible first drafts.] This is how they end up with good second drafts and terrific third drafts. . . I know some very great writers, writers you love who write beautifully and have made a great deal of money, and not one of them sits down routinely feeling wildly enthusiastic and confident. Not one of them writes elegant first drafts. All right, one of them does, but we do not like her very much. We do not think that she has a rich inner life or that God likes her or can even stand her. (Although when I mentioned this to my priest friend Tom, he said you can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.”

“To all you writers, artists, musicians, creative types who want to give up: It's okay to walk away for a bit. Get your second wind. But your writing, art, music will be there, lurking over your shoulder, and it will call to you, and you will answer. And come back even stronger.”
