One such book that I recently read was promising. Until it wasn’t.

I don't panic, I don't fight writer's block. It's part of the ebb and flow of the creative process. I've also realised that a block often precedes a surge in creativity.

I generally enjoy James Patterson’s novels, but not this one. Although the writing flows, which kept me engaged, I felt there was too much going on, and the main character, Jane Smith, is hard-bitten and unlikeable. Lacking depth, she’s one-dimension ...more |

“It was an interesting night. I’d never been to a non-Jewish wedding, and Phelan assured me that this one was not the norm. The bride and groom got pissed as newts—he ended up passed out, sprawled face down in his own vomit, while she did the cancan on the bridal table, flashing something old, which apparently was nothing new.”

We let go of one phase, one aspect of love, and enter another. Passion dies and is brought back. Pain is chased away and surfaces another time. To love means to embrace and at the same time to withstand many endings, and many many beginnings- all in the same relationship.”
