Of course there are infinite gradations, not lines of demarcation, but if we're describing things just in terms of primary and secondary colors, we often disagree. He will allow that I have a more discriminating color sense than he does, but will still maintain that something I know to be purple is actually blue.Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15687576858431478668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5767816.post-1113865195421710582005-04-18T18:59:00.000-04:002005-04-18T18:59:00.000-04:00The "adult" book question was actually intended, i...The "adult" book question was actually intended, in my mind, as "what's the first book that drew you out of the children's section of the library (or bookstore)". But I decided it was a good question however it was interpreted.<BR/><BR/>Something interesting to me, is that a lot of the "classics" which first lured me to the other side -- Dickens, Austen, Dumas -- are found just as often in the children's section anymore. Maybe that was true then too, and I didn't notice. But I do kind of wonder about that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5767816.post-1113788835636183982005-04-17T21:47:00.000-04:002005-04-17T21:47:00.000-04:00Sometimes I do think that editors are born, not ma...Sometimes I do think that editors are born, not made.<BR/><BR/>The seed of your novel sounds fascinating. No pressure from me, of course, because I am all too familiar with laziness and pressure, and who needs it, really. However, if you do decide to pursue it, I'd love to read it someday!Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17358441701832129130noreply@blogger.com
