I can't get enough of Robbin Hobb aka Meagan Lindholm. Are there any other fans out there? What is your favourite story and why? Personally I can't get enough of Fitz and the Fool.

I was wondering if anybody could point me in the right direction of some good African-American authors? I am looking to read some books that talk first-hand about the struggles that African-Americans have had to endure in regards to racism and prejudice in this country. I am about to read James Baldwin's "Go tell it on the mountain" which I have heard great things about. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance and God bless.

Anything goes, though I think we all know there are just certain songs (Hit Me Baby One More Time?) that inspire nothing. Suggest good songs and/or groups. Thanks!

Maybe its just me, but I always spend AGES finishing one. I write, if I'm in the mood, just about as fast as I read books - and that's about 20 pages per hour, the paperback ones, small print and small format of paper. Still, it takes me generally 3 years to finish a short story that would be about 100 pages, and 5 years to finish a manuscript that would be about 400 pages.
I put my heart and soul into those stories, and after I've finally finished them, despite my desire to share my fiction with the world, I decide its not good enough and needs too much correcting, and it ends up in the bin. (the short story still needs reviewing of the last part)
Many of my manuscripts have ended up in the bin like that, and while I once had a good thriller and suspense, and a couple of movie scripts to my name, I'm now left over with my most recent projects; 2 fantasy stories and a horror short story, which is finished.
I hear most writers need at most a year. What is wrong with me?

When asked this question my intent was to point out that 6 yrs of history do not equate to 2000years. I was a child during the war and was bombed out 3 times so I was very much affected by it.
However, it is still time to move on and learn about other things.

Has anyone heard anything about Jude Deveraux's new book? All I know is that it's called Someone To Love and that's it. Has anyone heard anything else about it?

I'm the one who waits
I'm the one who believes
I'm the one who waits
In the pile of leaves

I'm the one who breaths
I'm the one who lives
I'm the one who breaths
In the sand filled pits

I'm the one who warms
I'm the one who hopes
I'm the one who warms
In the blistering cold

I'd save you from the storm
I'd help you become reborn
We'd fly through the clouds
And we'd be off those swallowing grounds
