I finished The Bookman's Tale last night, and I really enjoyed it. All three time periods meshed, the killer of the Victorian art specialist was apprehended, and it touched my heart i a way that few books manage.  I recommend it highly.

So, I've begun Mr Lovett's novel about a young book collector in Oxford in the present and the courtship of Miss Jane Austen in 1796.  Miss Austen is writing an epistolary novel she calls Marianne and Elinor, and I believe she will soon be thinking about a epistolary novel titled First Impressions.  Both of her revised novels will be published 17-18 years later under different titles.

From the memoirs?

This chapter I'm working on could do that!


Do I need to enter a witness protection program?

Might be advisable.

First order of business, DR Ginny -- you might want to get used to wearing one of these around town in the interim.

The bird is looking for his hawk. He's kept an eye on the window all day.

Sounds better than the 450-page biography of Mrs. John Quincy Adams that I'm trying to read.  Not sure I'll stick with it...

Good afternoon. I stayed home today with my heel on ice. I thought exercise was supposed to be good for you.

Had a nice meeting with a nice actress, and then had an egg salad sandwich to tide me over until after tonight's show.

TOD;

THE SYNDICATE--a new, I believe, British show on Acorn TV. I've been watching it all week and will watch the season finale tonight. I'll be sorry to see it end.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.
