Chimera

Full on flattery? That's a low blow, but one which always works... you're forgiven *laughs*

You wonderful, wonderful writer! You did it! What old favourites, new writers recomended by friends and good old Hugo couldn't... You returned my reading mojo to me *does a happy little dance*

I read and reread your prologue, to the point that I missed the bus I intended to take, and then went on to pick up my book, which I now have made headway in. Finally! My mojo had been gone for more than a month...

I'll send you full comments by PM later... but you can already guess I enjoyed it at least a little, no? *cracks up*

Hi Beth!

So, that's it, you're finally in HK? *grin* How is it going? Are you settled in a nice place?

Hope it's as awsome as it sounded!

That and a wayward mojo, yes. *laughs* I'll be sure to give you the full review!

ah. Wel I think the 'best' advice I can give is to take it one step at a time and not put yourself under undue pressure... Just take on one little task after another and see how it brings you to the final result just by magic! *most convincing look* Seriously, I'm sure you'll do great!

I'm fine I guess... bored with myself if that even makes sense *laughs*

*hugs*

oh dear, I was worried of where this might be going for a minute Nice image, thanks! *cracks up*

hope you're having a great We!

I guess that's what makes them fun and 'mysterious'... not sure I'd want to anger those bodyguards of yours though! *laughs*

Thanks! Thought it was cute as well, and sort of matching with my username.

Hi!

Just wanted to let you know I have NOT forgotten about the prologue you so kindly sent me. I've started it and LOVED the beginning: the style is unsual and you give it a lot of atmosphere right from the start, a good mix! *grin*

I'll finish it tomorrow and give you a more complete opinion!

How's everything for you? Hope you are having a great We and your jaw is behaving!

*hugs*

Hi Louise!

Have you had time to look at The Camel Bookmobile yet? If not, there's no rush... I'm just curious to see what you make of it. *grin*

I hope all is well for you!

Ah GCSEs, of course! Well good luck with them then

Hi Ben! Haven't seen you much around the board lately, how are you? I was excited to see you now have a blog! Left you a comment but I'm not sure you've seen it. ;-)

Ah well, it's always nice when these moods catch us isn't it? Keep going! *laughs*

As for me, bookwise there's not much unfortunately! I haven't read a thing all week and I don't feel like reviewing at the moment (The Giver and Waiting are still on hold)... I'm thinking of adding other culture related stuff on my blog, cause with only books I barely update it once or twice a month.

Other than that, all is good!

'Night!

Hi Roxi! How are things? You've been updating your blog at such a rythm these last few days that I can't keep up... Is is it the speed you are reading at at the moment, or just a lot of backlog reviews?

Hope you're having a great We!

Hi! Thanks for the request *grin* I'm glad to hear that you are finally getting your jaw sorted. Lots of luck for tommorow!

Hi Roxi! Had a good easter We? I just replied to the Waiting thread, though my thoughts about it are rather jumbled at the moment. Any luck reviewing it?

Ah well, give it a bit more time, I guess. Hopefully you'll feel better soon.

Oh, that doesn't sound like a very nice place to be in. Are you still having trouble with your meds? I hope the sun lures yout soon! *grin*

Hi Sarah! Just thought I'd drop by to see how you are... It's been a while since you updated your blog. Enjoying the spring too much? *grin*

Hi!

Only just got back home and am trying to wrap my head around the short story again... surprisingly difficult! *laughs*

You still inspired?

*kisses*

Just replied...

Hi Jo! Great, I'm sure you'll love it! It is a very emotional read, especially towards the end... But it's wonderful. Let me know what you think.

Right. Well hopefully we can all sleep until a decent hour tomorrow!

It is. And it makes time fly so quick that I feel like christmas is barely over... Whereas people are already planning their summer holidays *laughs*

Ok, I'm off to bed. Might squeeze in a bit of Ha Jin be fore that.

'Night!

*kisses*

Yeah, I wondered how you plucked the energy to do it. Figured you were just trying to pass on your misery to later risers *laughs*

They do! To think some people actually wake up early on purpose... Cant figure it out.

Oh, I'm flaterred *laughs*

I'm off work for a week, ten days counting easter monday. Unfortunately not for holydays though, contrary to what everyone at work keeps believing. *pouts* It's back to school for me... I still haven't figured out which weeks I prefer.

*kisses*

Ouch, that word actually hurts so early in the day!

Well it's 7:46am and I'm meant to be gone in ummm 9mn now but I'm still in bed, under to warm comfortable blanket *shudders at the impending cold*

That's fine, get to it when you have time/ feel in the mood for it. Was just checking it hadnt fallen in a limbo *laughs*

Survive those last moments before the We kicks in!

*kisses*

Oh yes of course, I do know how to drop intelligent sounding words... that's at least one thing business schools are good about. It's just not as confortable as sitting back *laughs*

Inhumain seems the only word for it *cracks up* You have all my sympathy!

By the way, had any look at Au bohneur des ogres yet?

*kisses*

I'll be thinking of you tomorrow Ben. I'm sure you'll make your aunt very proud! I wish there was more I could say. Sending you lots of and positive thoughts...
