Publish and... damn!: February 2008
http://publishanddamn.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Publish and. damn! The printable comments on the life of a bookmaker. Lives in six words. In the 1920s, Ernest Hemingway bet ten dollars that he could write a complete story in just six words. He wrote: "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn." He won the bet. Try it. It's not easy. You don't have to write your entire autobiography - go back to Hemingway's example and create a complete, but short, story. Dick Hadfield: Foetus, son, brother, husband, father, vegetable. Robin Pickering: If only I had turned left.

LIVERPOOL: the first 1,000 years: Feedback: from novelist Sue Haasler
http://liverpoolfirst1000years.blogspot.com/2007/03/feedback-from-novelist-sue-haasler.html
LIVERPOOL: the first 1,000 years. Feedback: from novelist Sue Haasler. Your book arrived this morning, and I've spent all afternoon reading it (ignoring my daughter's pleas to help her draw arms on fairies, feed her etc). I just wanted to let you know that I think it's wonderful - you've done the city proud. Although negative things are necessarily mentioned, the overall impression is of the Liverpool I love - characterful, vibrant, full of history and culture, unique. More of the book.

LIVERPOOL: the first 1,000 years: Kind but anonymous comment...
http://liverpoolfirst1000years.blogspot.com/2008/01/kind-but-anonymous-comment.html
LIVERPOOL: the first 1,000 years. Kind but anonymous comment. I applaud the writing and photography in the book. Probably the most pored over book I have in my Liverpool collection. On another topic, do you have connections with David Wood's Liverpool Pictorial www.liverpoolpictorial.co.uk.co.uk? He has a huge archive recording the development of the waterfront over the past 5 years which I find fascinating. 01 April 2007 12:43. More of the book. Extracts from chaptes 1-5. READ about other great books.

LIVERPOOL: the first 1,000 years: LOVE THE BOOK!
http://liverpoolfirst1000years.blogspot.com/2007/04/love-book.html
LIVERPOOL: the first 1,000 years. I'm fortunate to have at least one friend with taste and he gave me your fabulous book for Christmas. I thought I'd found my favourite Liverpool book in Quentin Hughes 'Liverpool: City of Architecture' - which you quite rightly describe as 'delicious' - but your's is even better! It's a beautifully honest, unpretentious piece of work that celebrates the achievements of the city yet acknowledges we've still got some way to go. Great book - makes me proud to live here.
