Just a quick message to everyone ... Although I am not very active either here or other social media, I am still alive and well! LOL! I would like to wish y'all a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkuh, or whatever special holiday you may hold dear. Here's hoping that once the holidays are over, I can possibly find a little time to kick back and tackle some of that TBR pile of books that's always lurking on my night stand. LOL!

If you have ever enjoyed the books of Pat Conroy, placed mostly in the South Carolina low country, you may be saddened to learn he died yesterday at age 70. Here is a collection of blogs he wrote recently that may be of interest. Of course, there is some classic literature he has left to will define him as one of America's great southern writers. http://patconroy.com/wp/

I am on a quest to reread some of the great literature put out over the years by Jeffery Archer, the famous and infamous, English author who spent 2 years in prison for a libel conviction in which he did not defend himself. He is a year younger than me at 75 now but still writing. I am rereading the classic 5 book saga of the Clifton Chronicles and the last book in the series has been released with a summary of the tale. The deal is only $2.99 from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Mightier-than-Sword-Chronicles-Analysis-ebook...

I picked up 2 Marcia Muller books at our library book sale, and after finishing both,decided to try to read all the "Sharon McCone" books of hers. Also reading Tale of Two Cities for an OLLI class I am taking--quite a difference in the literature this week! Has anyone else taken any OLLI classes? (O. Lifelong Learning Institute) for the over 50"s set. I have really been enjoying them, and the literature related classes are stimulating. I have been so busy with classes and volunteering, I haven't stopped by to this site for awhile. I will try to do better from now on.
