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.

We're back...!

Yes, it's been a while, again!
I'd gotten a trifle discouraged by the seeming disappearance of
a great many of the first postings...I couldn't find some of
my earliest entries... I brought the problem to my most
perspicacious grandson...a true child of the 21st century!
Lo and behold! there is now a column to the right of the front
page of this blog labeled Archives...and the lost is found!
(I do seem to be enamored of those exclamation-marks;
but sometimes the excitement needs them)
***************
Thoroly examined the SS'10 readers' choice awards...
& found a few worth reading... the 4 shoe boxes have
morphed into five...
I will hope/try to do a bit more herein with greater
frequency...
***************
Notes.. the GW has removed her web page...*
so "Sunni" and "The Journey Home" are no longer
available to us...I mourn...
*******
the G-cat has completed "Casting Stones.."
all 100 pages of it...strong stuff!! not for the
faint of heart! or squeamish...but..(Kappa imo:
As good as "Bad Places" ) heartily recommended!
**************
*a personal plea to GreenWillow & she most kindly
fwded those web pps to greshunkai..the aforementioned
grandson adeptly changed htm to rtf...& I have a desktop
literally littered with her stories... we are abjectly grateful!
**************
we blush! kc anathema(aka the G-cat) has commented..
our gratification and gratitude are unconfined!
