Blog ADDITIONS

I have been exploring ways of making short stories more interesting before I publish them as ebooks.

It would be interesting to know whether any of you have done this, with pictures and/or with music?

It seems to be possible to "embed" both in Kindle ebooks (and in blogs!)

“Amantium irae amoris integratio est

A Latin saying that means

Lovers’ quarrels are the renewal of love”
Janet Aylmer, Sophie's Salvation

“Lady Catherine quoting Lizzie Bennet:

She had the impudence to reply that, whilst these would be heavy misfortunes, your wife must have such extraordinary sources of happiness necessarily attached to her situation, that she could, upon the whole, have no cause to repine.”
Janet Aylmer

“One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life.

That word is love."

(Sophocles)
