| Congratulations! And welcome back. |
| Just finished reading TOXIN by Robin Cook. It violates every rule I learned here at WDC. To name a few, the book abounds in heavy use of the passive voice, head-hopping and tons of telling. Cook continues to be a best-selling author. I wonder why. Probably, l something to do with his unique positioning in the realm of medical thrillers as well as the intricate plots and the meticulous research that goes into each of his books. |
| Could one of you point me to an article or forum that describes "head-hopping?" Afraid I'm not familiar with the term in relation to POV. |

| Thrilled to have built and posted my own erotic cNote shop. Had a lovely time exploring the images and putting it all together. You can visit it at "Erotic Naughty CNotes" [GC]. Doing it your own way is so much more fun and economical. Just realized that. |
| I used to run a contest called The Creative Detailing Contest when life got in the way, and I withdrew. Now, with the return of my muse, would like to resume this contest again. The latest round is now open. Please visit the contest at "The Creative Detailing Contest " [13+], and if time permits, do participate. |
| In the event of this Meet going through, will fence sitters like me who have not yet confirmed get a chance to do so closer to the D date. In my case, it's going to be an arduous 24 hour journey from Calcutta to Newark with a halt in Dubai. Would have to take leave from office. Difficult to plan so much in advance. I'd really like to be there, but not sure as of now. |
