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.

contemplation of a word...

There's this thing called a 'disclaimer'-that
has to be put in ahead of any story
written about a cultural icon that is NOT the intellectual property
of the writer.. DISCLAIMER
Some time ago, I was thinking about the spelling--that is, the letters
that make up this word--and I had a very strange epiphany..
it goes like this...
D is for ...
S is for ...
C is for ...
L is for ...
A is for ...
M is for ...
R is for ...
& if you pluralize it with another 'S'
well....?
comments..anyone? (would like to know if any other T-fen have
had similiar realizations abt. the spelling of this particular word)
one more note for today---T is minus 57...and counting!!
