Shelf Sufficient: March 2008

http://shelfsufficient.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

What I am reading and what I have learnt from it as a writer. Thursday, 13 March 2008. The Sunday Philosophy Club - Alexander McCall Smith. A self-sufficient lady philosopher witnesses a young man's death and decides that something isn't right and that she needs to investigate. She justifies her nosiness by claiming that it helps her recover from the trauma of witnessing someone dying. Tuesday, 11 March 2008. Malcolm in the middle. To the viewers early on. Another few chapters of. A Feast For Crows.

Shelf Sufficient: Interzone 222

http://shelfsufficient.blogspot.com/2009/06/interzone-222.html

What I am reading and what I have learnt from it as a writer. Monday, 29 June 2009. Johnny and Emmie-Lou get Married. Greaserpunk gang love story. This is a small and perfect story set in an original universe. Read it and tell others. Mellow apocolypse story that questions the nature of reality. I liked the slackerish main character who responds other people, rather than acting for himself. Lady of the White-Spired City. By Sarah L. Edwards. I'm guessing that this feeling of deprivation mirrors the helpl...

Twelve Old Masters: June 2007

http://12oldmasters.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 27 June 2007. The Mass of St Giles - The Master of St Giles. And what a thing that I should see it! There’s the king, stuttering and sighing – can’t get the words, can’t say ‘Forgive me, Father.’ And down comes… well, I’d have hardly believed it if I hadn’t seen it. I couldn’t see that it said: I suppose some things are secret between kings, abbots and God. Links to this post. Wednesday, 20 June 2007. The Capel Family - Cornelius Johnson. Most of the time, there was nothing to see however, bec...

Starlight, starbright...: May 2009

http://starlightjourney.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Every book starts with an idea, a spark, a moment of inspiration, and travels through many hands until it ends its journey with a child. This blog will track the journey of one book, written by James Mayhew, and illustrated by Jackie Morris. Friday, May 22, 2009. A white envelope on a gray day. So, many thanks to James for his patience with me, and to Barefoot for turning the book around and making it shine. I have learned a lot working on this book. Sunday, May 17, 2009. In a small and quiet voice.

Book Review: Stitch Step by Step by Maggi Gordon and Ellie Vance | The Really Good Life

http://www.thereallygoodlife.com/6377/book-review-stitch-step-by-step-by-maggi-gordon-and-ellie-vance

Where growing, making and good living come together. Book Review: Stitch Step by Step by Maggi Gordon and Ellie Vance. On Wednesday 23 November 2011 in Featured. It was a moment of serendipity when I spotted this book, Stitch Step by Step by Maggi Gordon and Ellie Vance. The design of the book grabbed me from the outset: the pretty blue/dotty cover; the clear, well laid out tutorial pages; and the stitch galleries, oh my, the stitch galleries. In addition to the colourful thread work, there were also sec...

Starlight, starbright...: After the cover

Every book starts with an idea, a spark, a moment of inspiration, and travels through many hands until it ends its journey with a child. This blog will track the journey of one book, written by James Mayhew, and illustrated by Jackie Morris. Wednesday, May 13, 2009. After a few days of recovery, during which I hung an exhibition while I should have been resting and did some owl paintings that I have waited a year to do, went for a walk with Joanna Lumley. I have to go to Hay Festival. Meanwhile, today I ...
