How about giving up his name and the book titles. I read every night
and I'd be interested in reading one (or more).

OMG, you're also a reader? So that proves you're a writer. I see.

Does reading about your writing mean I'm a writer too?

I just wanted to make sure ;-)
I doubt that Julie would know. I doubt that she will find out. Someone
might suggest that she find out, but she will come up with excuses why
she cannot do that.

You are probably correct in thinking that people would still think you
are lying. There has been several threads that have developed over
whether or not you are a writer. People claimed to have read messages
posted by you where you used the words "I am a writer". Those words came
from your keyboard several times over a period of years and as recently
as last month. You denied having said that.


It is a matter of credibility, and you have none.... none.... zero. You
have made a number of outrageous claims that looked like lies and which
turned out to have been fabricated. Granted, there are a few people who
are naive enough to give you yet another chance, but most well informed
and intelligent people will look at your record of misinformation and
outright lies and dismiss future claims as lies because you have proved
yourself to be dishonest.... a liar.

I wonder how many so-called poets could write a sonnet.

LOL! I sure don't blame you there. Good call.
Try to email me again. If it bounces, let me know that it did and
quote the reason that they say. In the past, AT&T has blocked all
people from certain ISP's for some reason or another.

If it bounces again, I'll get an addy from aol.com and maybe that will
work. I actually DO have an AOL addy (just to sign on to the Eternal
September ng thing). I'm sure I saved the name and password for that
but I'll have to find it.

As I said, I read every single day, fiction and non-fiction. If your
husband writes popular books, I might be interested in checking one
out. I'm always *up* to find a new favorite author.

One of my favorite authors is James Michener. I like his books because
he starts with real history but then personalizes it with fiction,
enhancing the real people's lives. I'm only about 30 pages away from
re-reading, "Alaska." I might re-read "Hawaii" soon too. Those two and
"Chesapeake" are my favorites by him.

My favorite non-fiction books are my daughter's old college textbooks.
One is Geology and the other is Earth Science.
