Three Writers Who Changed My Life
I read and re-read these novelists
Oh yes, I do read other writers—especially their books—and I sometimes review them here. I tend to avoid critical remarks and point out themes that are intriguing, inspiring, and illuminating.
I’d welcome your comments on what you have discovered and admire about these three authors.

I can't wait to read Clifford's Spiral. It sounds very interesting.
Pictures of Lisbon look a lot like where we live in Southern California! Travel plans don't include Lisbon just now but we have heard it's wonderful. Glad to have you as a new friend, Luis.
Majenta, It's a pleasure to be in such good company.

Hi Gerald, thanks for the add. Your books in digital motion picture production techniques sound like proper cool endeavors. I hope to check them out!
Hi Gerald,Thanks for the "add," as they say on Myspace. I'm also looking forward to checking out your books. I'm a thriller writer myself and my better half reckons I need to broaden my horizns and get sine light relief. I'm a big fabn of Tom Sharpe, however, and sense an affinity with some of your stuff.
Cheers

If the phone rings I'll let it go to voicemail.
The only inflatable doll book I own is "Kiki" by John Gill, a moody British suspense story. I'll be reviewing the novel in the weeks to come.
thanks you for the adMichele Marchetti

Hi Graeme, Yes the good news is anyone who can scrape up a five-figure budget can make a movie. That's why Sundance gets about 5,000 submissions of full-length movies every year. Sheesh!
Hi Thanks for the invite. Hope you're having an enjoyable week? Books on digital film making. Fascinating. I was just watching a presentation about that very thing. It's great how technology has put the tools for film making in the hands of anyone who wants to explore different media.
I bet a lot of women fall in love with that face! ;-] I admit I'm jealous but I'm not so sure I'd want to trade.
