Hi Steven
I am currently at No 15 with my Mary's Magic Muffins & Other Tales for Children. I am looking for support of it to take me nearer the coveted ED. I return reads with an honest feedback. As I think it is best to be honest. I will be here for a long time and will support anyone who helps me make it to the desk. Thank you for taking the time to read this message.
Brian.

Who is that in your Avi, Derek Anderson?

Hi Steve,
I hope you get a chance to read my steampunk story.

Hi Steven
I've made it to no 20 and I'm looking for some support to take me nearer the coveted ED. If you would like to support Mary's Magic Muffins & Other Tales for Children for a while I'd be extremely grateful. I return all reads with an honest feedback, as I think it is better to be honest. If you'd like to read swap let me know. I will be on authonomy here for a long time and will support those who have helped me. Thank you for taking the time to read this message. Hope to hear from you soon.
Brian.

Excuse the unsolicited message. Have you heard of CLOG? If so, don't let me take up any more of your time. If not, it's a comedy writer's reading group, a place to discover and review books of this genre while getting feedback on your own work from likeminded people. If this is something that might interest you please take a look at:
http://authonomy.com/forums/threads/110633/comedy-literature-only-group-clog-/
and, if you like what you see, you'd be very welcome to sign up. I've discovered some great stories through this group but we need as many members as we can get.
Thanks for reading, Alastair

Hi Steve

You never answered my last message, so I'm guessing you don't check this site too often either these days. My book 'Hit The Road Frank' will finally be published in paperback and on kindle in the next few books. In fact it's all ready to go on kindle, I just need to press the button, but I want to make it a simultaneous thing. Anyway, I'm about to delete it from the authonomy site. If you would like to give me your direct email address, I'll let you know when it's out there. Contact me on

I re-read what I wrote..and YOU should have pressed the report button ..for incomprehensible it was. (I wrote it fast).
Naturally, now, I've corrected it.

Yours is one of those books, I wouldn't mind owning in paperback.
It has "dreamy" and "laid back" clear view on these melancholic forgotten suburbs.

I tried to read at work, but I only read random chapters here and there..in different days.(It's make me think /dream to much at work..that's why am not able to REALLY read it)

But to do it justice, I read it while chilling on my couch.
while listening to Bruce Springsteen live-CD number: 3.
and sipping some whiskey, slowly...

You might say:
"But Milo, CD 1 or 2 of the live are more appropriate for my book. They have thunder road,etc..etc.."
I'd answer
"Technically yes.
Emotionally:no."
Anyway, great book.
Btw: the kid that would lie for his friend (during the car race).was that based on someone real?


Btw:
I appreciate how you started the whole SHEBANG with a 'BECAUSE the datsung....' (It's the BECAUSE that killed me..in a good way)

OK, Steve, I only back books that are good. Books I don't like I don't think I have the right to tear apart. Good luck!

Thanks Steve! Nice of you to remember Frogs :)

You're welcome.

The semi-colon thing... Ha. Am editing my own stuff just now and realising i have a serious semi-colon addiction. Deleting them rabidly. It was just nice to find a fellow addict really...

You're welcome. I was drawn to read your book after your insightful comments on The Catcher in the Rye. I have only read the first chapter - hope to find time to read more and comment but I'm really busy so I just back books that I like these days and comment if I can at a later stage.

Steve, I love the thought of Daniel Day Lewis method acting his way into setting up an alternative Fed Reserve. respect. [And sorry about the Danish Antique dealer, I can't think what came over me ............................]

check my message from yesterday, Steve

Hi Steve

I'm replying to your message of 213 days ago! I don't participate any more, and I checked in yesterday as I wanted to contact our old friend Bradley Wind. I saw ROE was still on the scene, so I shelved it one more time. My book Hit The Road Frank, much edited and revised, should be out in book form and on kindle in a month or so. How about you? Please reply to my personal email: fordbrian501@gmail.com

Best wishes

Hello, my name is James Revino. I am the author of ‘Hollow.’ I was wondering if you might be able to take a look at my work and tell me what you think, good and bad. Any critique would be much appreciated, it is the best way to improve. Of course, if you wanted to back it, that would be great as well. Have a good day, and thanks for your time.

I've tried several times to read Running on Empty but I have a hard time getting past the first scene. I find car openings to be almost as often done as weather and waking up, and the start exemplifies my problem with them--despite being well written, despite introducing character and conflict--it doesn't feel like the action. It feels like being on the way to the action. My suggestion would be to open with the boys at the funeral parlor standing by the door where they bring the bodies in. That raises questions for me in a way nothing in the car scene does: why are they there, do they work there, who died, how?

I hope this message doesn't come amiss; now that I've managed to get past the hurdle of the first scene, I want to read more. (Wasn't sure you wanted this comment on the book though.)

Hi Steve

Thanks for backing DM -- much appreciated.

Cheers,
Brett.
