Based on a unknown source susanna moodie's writing style is tended to compound with fact and fiction scince some of her life story is written in third person as a novel, leading one to suspect that the line between fact and fiction in her mind and her writings was perhaps not properly drawn.

I'm working on a novel (written in first person) and need a good opinion: is it alright to have the point of view switch between two main characters? How often is this acceptable? Does this throw you off when you're reading? Please, give me any thoughts you might have.

I mean, the owner of the bookstore is the one who selects which books will be sold there. New or used? What topics or genres? What special attention will be granted to a particular new release? Would you say that's an influential position?

i have written a short part to my story. and would like you to tell me if you think it's scary.

She rises up from the lake very slowly. She seems to almost look as if she is standing up above water. Sierra looked at the long-haired spirit as it twitches it’s head and lets out an eerie sound. The girl backed away in panic. The spirit turns it head as if mechanical. The hair splits open, revealing pale face in the moonlight. The eyes became bloodshot as it stares at Sierra.
“No!” Sierra cried as the spirit began to move it’s feet towards her. Dragging its feet across the dirt and grass, the spirit makes the eerie sound. Like mix of croak and crying. The spirit’s eyes looked at her as the pale face becomes more bloody instead.
Then sierra tries getting onto her feet, and starts racing to the grounds for a way out. But the only way out is through the school. The very place she did not want to return.
The spirit reaches its hand out to reach her as the cry became more frightening and ominous. Sierra ran to the school door and tries yanking it open. By the time she got it opened, the spirit’s pale face came through the darkness towards her. She slammed the door and turned.
The spirit is nowhere to be found. She slumped into the ground partly paralyzed and exhausted. She put her hands onto her face and began to shake in fear. The sound came again and she didn’t want to look. She peeked through her fingers. Her face was very close to the spirit’s. The eyes looked into her as if hypnotized. Sierra was unable to speak. The spirit vanished before her.
Sierra waited to see if the worse is to come. She looked down and saw that she is no longer in her own casual wear, but the school uniform. It was tattered and bloody. She screamed and started shaking like a leaf. She felt another presence. She looked up. A different spirit has arisen. But it’s as if she know who she is. She started saying no and shaking her head. The blonde hair spirit raised a thin knife and sliced through the air. Sierra’s scream is blood curdling and lasted through the night…

please give me some good quotes

I love stuff like Colleen McCollough's Song of Troy, Lindsey Davis' Falco series and so on. Can anyone else recommend anything good set in Ancient Greece or Ancient Rome. (Not Valerio Massimo Manfredi. Having read "The Oracle", I not only want seven hours of my life back, I'd like to give the author a good slap if I ever meet him).

I've heard there are loads of hidden Christian symbols in this book, but I can't find any. Any hints?

called "Stories with Holes", and if so, where I can find/buy them. I remember them when I was in 1st or 2nd grade, in the Mid 80's.

In reading, what matters more?

Variety or devotion?

I've always wanted to be a writer, but have come to the grim realization that there is not really any work in this field. Besides being an editor or, god forbid, a high school english teacher, is there really any work out there?

I have heard of publishers that paid people to read books and critique what they have read. I think this would be a great at home second job for me, and would like to find out where I need to go to get into this business.
