A ROOM WITHOUT BOOKS IS LIKE A BODY WITHOUT A SOUL" CICERO. Friday, 15 October 2010. An Autumn Evening by Lucy Maud Montgomery. Dark hills against a hollow crocus sky. Scarfed with its crimson pennons, and below. The dome of sunset long, hushed valleys lie. Cradling the twilight, where the lone winds blow. And wake among the harps of leafless trees. Fantastic runes and mournful melodies. The chilly purple air is threaded through. With silver from the rising moon afar,. Pausing again and yet again at will.

Ruminations of a crime fiction addict and writer. Why female crime writers write the most violent novels. Thursday, July 19, 2012 No Comments. I've often wondered why women writers relish such violence (I keep violence to a minimal in my own stories), what draws them so to the gruesome and macabre?
