Kappa Tracks

"A story is made up of words and characters. Are the words well chosen and do the characters live? All the rest is literary gossip."

My six decade love affair with the English language compels me to offer a list of authors whose work meets my critical standards. The single criterion operant is the quality of the prose as composed by the writers. I have made no discrimination whatsoever as to subject matter, theme, or plot.

Therefore be warned!

A great many of the works here listed may involve themes or subjects repugnant to some readers. I can only advise that if a particular story cannot be stomached, go on to the next; you will find at least a few to be to your taste.

addendum-5-08: oh dear...
another quote-one that puts me in my place..
"Devotees of grammatical studies have not
been distinguished for any remarkable
felicities of expression."
okay...but I still think strongly that if you
can't grammatically express creative thought,
you may risk confusion and misunderstanding on the
part of those reading your work.
