British lit is at a different level, I much prefer it to colloquial American lit. Please any recommendations for an enjoyable read? (I like books with broad life themes like East of Eden, Life after God.)

If there is little point sending the manuscript to a literary agent, then what is the next step? Appraisal by a professional appraisal agency?

2006-09-16 15:33:11 · 3 answers · asked by Anonymous

I've always heard it's bad form, but if an agent takes several months to read my submission I need to be able to send it to three or four at once. If I do simultaneously submit, should I mention that in my cover letter? Thanks for your advice.

I am looking for Musketeer fiction outside of the Dumas novels (Three Musketeers, Twenty Years Later, Man in the Iron Mask, etc...) for a comparative paper I am doing. I've had no luck on Amazon searching for books, so any help would be appreciated!

JK rowling has stated that two main characters will die early in book 7 - my dibs were definetly on ron and ginny

Ron sacrificed himself in book one and ginny was under the ebb of tom riddles diary in book 2 -

or would it be draco and snape ? - these two characters flee the scene straight after killing dumbledore xxxx ?

I had dibs on arthur too - he is important but has been nearly killed off in OOTP - the snake attack - arthur and ginny, this will make ron and harry stronger as harry gets it on with ginny in HBP ? they will both be fighting with anger againstthe dark lord voldemort oxx

ALSO - what about neville's parents id say they are IMPORTANT they were part of the order - identities within so how important are these characters an who are they xx

I also thought about remus or moody - or tonks with he depression around siruis' death HBP OOTP and being related to narcissa black and draco malfoy maybe being part of the blood promise oooh ? what do you fans think x

He tells siruis never to leave grimmuald place, he tells harry to try a liqourice beetle. When sirius leaves the house he dies, or was seen,ootp when harry has a sweet he finds the pensieve ,gof,

but he insists that professer snape is worth haveing around even if he kills him HBP,
however - dumbledore asks snape to give harry lessons in occlumency and in the end of HBP snape shouts to harry after killing dumbledore - and fighting with harry - "blocked again and again until you learn to keep your mind closed and your mind shut.
In a way he is helping harry - did dumbledore want harry to be trained for a fight with snape - or was this something he did not foresee -
however the blood promise made with snape and narcissa to help draco HBP must ahve been easy for dumbledore to sense ! its powerful - - - so why ? Dumbledore died for a reason ? anyone else wondering about book 7 - its title its contents ooh july 7 2007 cant wait x

I discovered the genre, lol, and don't know that many authors or whatever.

I've only read Elizabeth Moon b/c it's set in space, about a tradeship and it involves adventure and no romance! <<< no romance is crucial for me, otherwise it seems to typical.

"These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by grief-arazzis. These self-obsessed women seemed genuinely unaware that 9/11 was an attack on our nation and acted as if the terrorist attacks happened only to them. ... I've never seen people enjoying their husbands' deaths so much ... the Democrat ratpack gals endorsed John Kerry for president ... cutting campaign commercials... how do we know their husbands weren't planning to divorce these harpies? Now that their shelf life is dwindling, they'd better hurry up and appear in Playboy."

I am doing a research project and need some ideas of novels to use which feature governesses as their main character. I am looking at factors such as why they were written e.g to educate, to emphasise their plight? Were they realistic portrayals? Were there differences between male and female writers ideas? The more novels I can look into the better and then narrow it down to the most productive for my work.
