I would also like to know who your favorite book character was and why you liked them so much. Would you have kept reading additional books on the same characters if there would have been more of them published? Thank you very much for your time and trouble.

I have written a novel which I have been trying to get published for over a year now! I have two chapters that I love equally, and either one of them can be the very first chapter. We all know that the first chapter has to be fantastic so that it draws attention of the publishers - so I need your help to decide which chapter is best to be the first.
All you need to do if you are willing to help me, is to contact my avatar and give me your email address, saying that you want to read my two chapters. Then, I will send it to you through email and you may read the two chapters. Then you can write back to me or answer on Yahoo Answers, which chapter you think grips your imagination most and is the best. Why do you think so? What is bad and good about each chapter? Your personal opinions? In the end, I will count the votes and consider each opinion, so your word counts a lot in here. Please, help!
My book is a historical fantasy for young adults and teenagers!

The Dust cover is a bit scruffy and has been sellotaped around the edges in the past and has yellowed with age. The other book is The River of Adventure same condition as the first book but is dated 1955

Not only do I understand his writing (I surprise myself sometimes) but find the plays very dry, witty, hilarious even if it is sometimes rather black! Are there any fellow 'heathens' out there who can also see this in his works? I'm not well read by any means but his plays are large as life to me and very, very funny! :-D (On the most part).

At school I'd be laughing when everyone else was furrowed of brow whenever we studied Shakespeares work.

Incidentally I knew a girl called SHAKESHEFF who claimed her name was derived from Shakespeare, does anyone know her coz I'd love to get in touch with her again? LUCY was her first name.

How does Sting's "Wrapped around your finger" relate to the novel Frankenstein. My English teacher said it was about knowledge humans should not know; science. I dissent from his interpretation.

How long have you been working on writing it? Where are you at in the process: first draft, editing, looking for publisher/agent, published already? How do you feel about your work?

When you are writing a book, what defines the ending of a chapter? Is it when you want to skip ahead in time, when something major was said or done, or is it something else? Sometimes I see writers with extremely long chapters, and sometimes I see others who will sometimes have one-page chapters. So what exactly defines where the end of a chapter should be?

These books are from 1985-1992. I remember very few of the names. I'm trying to find some type of listing because I would enjoy reading them to my daughters, Most of these books were read during elementary school. Are there any lists that they would be on? I found one of the books but I can't even remember the others. I don't know where to begin to search.

He didn't expect to die Tuesday; they found him wearing silk panties. Now girls' underwear is a major focus of the investigation, go figure. His ole man says the cops planted them on him. Like, 'lingerie Squad! Freeze!' I don't ****** think so.

Healthy girls skip around the middle in whiter-than -white panties, then regions of shorts and cotton prints radiate out to the edges, where tangled babes hang in saggy purple underwear.
