My new web site, A Word in Time, takes a central word each week and then riffs on the books that I recommend under that category. The central word speeds up my thought processes in choosing.
The word this week is CELEBRATE as in what we may or may not be doing a week from today as our new President takes a bow. Here's hoping. . .
Some of the books highlighted include Far from the Madding Crowd, the short stories of Hemingway, historical fiction (Irwin Shaw), A Low-Country Heart (Conroy), and two by Jennifer Close (The Hopefuls, Girls in White Dresses).
Check out the pages of the web site. The blog updates, usually with writing prompts, twice or three times a week.
