Smarky retainer names4/29/2023 Oliver Prior was abandoned at a school/institution as a child, but because she can’t talk and she can see ghouls life at Merlaince is not good. I’ve just finished reading it and I’m going to read it again. Whilst waiting I borrowed Gallant by V E Schwab. Until one day somebody does remember her. Addie can not tell people her name and seconds after leaving a room everybody forgets her, yet her presence can be seen in paintings, books and songs. Addie has lived for over two hundred years when the reader meets her. I was listening to a podcast called Book Of and Jodi Picoult was recommending a book called The Invisible life of Addie LaRue by V E Schwab, which is about a young woman who makes a Faustian pact. Jenny, you and Bob working together is wonderful news. I maintain that it’s completely fair play, but still she was dancing pretty fast on this one. I’m also re-reading The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, and watching while Christie tap-dances around the murderer. Those of you who’ve been here for all of Argh know that occasionally Bob and I have tried to kill each other, but we’re older and wiser now, so with any luck we can do this. So we are cautiously thinking about collaborating again. So I said, “How do you feel about writing Vince’s PoV?” and we talked about that and he did a scene that was, of course, great in Vince’s voice and it pretty much confirmed that low-key Vince needs to be the counterpoint to snarky, angry Liz. (Let’s give the guy props, he read over 65,000 words for me.) Which is when I said, “This needs Vince’s PoV.” The whole thing was in Liz’s first person voice, and I know you’ll find this hard to believe, but my voice can be overwhelming. It’s part of a three book trilogy, and I like it, a lot, but it’s a mess, which talking to Bob confirmed. This week I read ten thousand files of Lavender’s Blue, a book I started in 2013 (?).
