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.

Beasts & Men(10-06)****
one of those turtles-turn-human stories,
but handled perfectly! great detail,
sensitive depict. of problems inher.
in such a drastic transform.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Donatello stood up, brandishing a syringe.
His brothers' heads whipped up immediately.
^^^^^^^^^^
Maybe it was because the idea of being
pierced by anything sharp was anathema
to them, as it should be to any armed fighter.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
April thought--Why hadn't Don brought it up before?
A second later she realized why: it was the first time
all night his brothers had been confined to a closed
space with walls reinforced with inch-thick
bulletproof armor.
^^^^^^^^^^^
