Books & Authors - August 2006

“I love you. I love you for what you are, but I love you yet more for what you are going to be. I love you not so much for your realities as for your ideals. I pray for your desires, that they may be great, rather than for your satisfactions, which may be so hazardously little.
“A satisfied flower is one whose petals are about to fall. But the most beautiful rose is one, hardly more than a bud, wherein the pangs and ecstasies of desire are working for larger and finer growth. Not always shall you be what you are right now. You are going forward toward something great. I am on the way with you and . . I love you.”

I read a book as a child and I can't remember the author or the title. It was about a boy who had to fight demons and he had elemental powers. He was aided by a warrior who had a demon shaped as a sword to help him. I think it was a series of books. I want to give the books to my son to read now but can't think of them.

I keep counting 8 but I have to do a homework assignment where I need to talk about "the seven deadly sins." Lust, gluttony, avarice, anger, heresy, violence, fraud and treachery are the ones that I find, are those the sins or am I wrong? To be honest with you I'm completely confused with this book.

I've got ideas but I can't seem to make them go together how I want. I think that by getting some sort of structure to my thoughts I can do a better job at figuring out what ideas need work on going with the flow along with an easier method of figuring out the entire story. I still don't really have a plot, even.

Its funny, I didn't say that they would be North South East and West, but a few of you made that connection, which was my original idea. How about these names:

Nanette
Sadie
Eva
Wren

I'll also tell you about each of their personalities, which hopefully will give you a better understanding of what I'm trying to do here. Eva is spoiled, rich, quite the narcissist, judgemental, stuffy with long black hair, piercing green eyes, and ivory skin. She offers strength to the girls. Sadie is a practical, beautiful, compassionate, graceful, optimistic peasant girl, with brown hair, olive skin, and hazel eyes. She offers compassion to the girls. Wren is tomboyish, a free spirit, rough, blunt, pessimistic, and spontaneous with curly red hair, tan skin, freckles, and brown eyes. She offers courage to the girls. Nanette is quiet, smart, an introvert, self-concious, fragile, and in the beginning, a bit of a pushover. She has blonde hair, fair skin, and blue eyes.

So, thoughts?

I'm currently writing a fantasy novel, and I'm at a loss to what to name my main characters. They are all girls, four of them, and their names must start with N, S, E, and W. I need something unusual, but not to where its difficult for my readers to pronounce their names. Any suggestions?

I read a book as a kid that had a sort of scientist as the main protagonist, who happened to sell his soul to the devil... it was very Faustian in nature. I can't seem to remember the name or author of the book and was wondering if anyone could help me out. Thanks!

I tried reading one once and put it down after I found it too vulgar for my taste, but ignoring that, I hadn't found anything particularly scary about the book yet.

So, what IS it that makes his writing embody horror, make his novels the epitome of fear?

Thanks!

Does anyone know Harry Potter's middle name? Did J.K. Rowling give him one or not? If she did, what is it?
