Her writing is so vivid. I do love her symbolism, but it's how she divulges those symbols that captivates me. Her stories are more compelling than any thriller I've ever read, yet her words grip the soul more than the edge of your seat. Sometimes I pick up one of her books and just leaf through it to read whatever page I land on just for a creativity boost. She can make a hot day in L.A. (Fortune's Daughter) the experience of a lifetime. We all can learn a lot from her writing.Karen Duvallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01839711547501582977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2337494610769031999.post-74371666346357878842014-02-07T07:43:04.944-07:002014-02-07T07:43:04.944-07:00Very helpful as I'm in the middle of revisions...Very helpful as I'm in the middle of revisions. :) ssashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15527483283426518167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2337494610769031999.post-59268189024928073222014-02-07T06:54:17.750-07:002014-02-07T06:54:17.750-07:00Okay, now I have to put the book on my read list. ...Okay, now I have to put the book on my read list.
