So if you feel you can make a small contribution that would be great. Any amount will make it easier on my pocket - even the cost of a cup of coffee!

Just added another page to the English section - my take on sms and Twitter abbreviations called Fun With EnglishJune 13th
Am reading James Lee Burke's "The Tin Roof BLOWDOWN" - talk about a good read! The master is still that "a master storyteller" Read my opinion in The Blog
May 27th The Blog is back!!! Though I have to re-enter all the lost materials. Historical Fiction fans - try Paul Waters - great writer. One of my distractions is developing a site about health and wellbeing and building a companion blog.It will discuss various health issues with some emphasis on mood disorders and also nutrition. May14th
I have been incredibly slack in adding to my site I know!!
I need to do a major re-vamp and freshen it up, but have not found the time .... but soon! In the meantime - I was going to suggest keeping up through my blog - but it is temporarily down! Sorry about that. A couple of good authors
Lesley Horton - "The Hollow Core" and others (UK Crime)
James Barclay - he's a bit like David Gemmell - but original still. Science Fiction Author - Cliff Ball -

The neglect story continues!
I have been focusing on building my online affiliate sites (5) and this is taking heaps of time - but will get back to this soon.... to do a major re-vamp of the site Recently read Paul Waters "Of Merchants and Heroes"
- a quite excellent historical novelist - along the vein of Mary Renault. A Recommended read See the historical section for what is said of him February 26th
NEGLECT, NEGLECT- I have been really remiss lately and not updating or adding to this site. My excuse is that I have been building an online affiliate business site. (www.affiliatesmarketingsolutions.com) Anyway - for a good read try Harry Sidebottom's "Warrior of Rome" series - deals with a different period of ancient Rome than usual - well written and constructed.Also been re-reading novels by Stephen J Cannell and Linda Fairstein - good for relaxation February 10th
Michael Connelly's :The Scarecrow is due in May! Features Jack McEvoy January 28th
Just finished Raymond E Feist's "Into a Dark Realm" - the 2nd volume of the Darkwar Saga. It ends leaving you on a knife edge of suspense - Feist really is an amazing writer - his imagination is endlessly fertile and not once do you get a sense of deja vu - it is not simply a re-hashing of previous themes - it is original and extends the saga of Pug and Midkemia begun so long ago.See the page on Feist January 23rd
A new section has been added: called Articles Published on the NavBar. It links to a series of articles we have submitted for Ezine publication from time to time. There are 5 so far on Beginners Tips For Internet Business January 8th, 2009
