The Presence
I found that the beginning of this book was sort of back and forth. It went from Carla, the teacher, then back to Emma , the little girl who had a imaginary "witch" friend. This book was very interesting. It was in a way realistic. There are people in today's society who believe that there is supernatural and third eyes as Abigal showed Emma in this book. It was extremely easy to follow. It was good at showing the story rather than telling it. For example when Alfred called the seances at his house, me as the reader could feel the intesity. All in all this was an outstanding book. AIt held my interest very well, and explained some witch craft, which made it curious as to know what's next. I would definently reccommend this book.

MacManus Sees Writing as a Retail Business!
Not mentioned in early reviews, You Can Write a Romance (etc.) is also a Writers Book Club Selection. (And the title is not repeated the way it is shown here.)

This book is the nuts-and-bolts of seeing your hard work in print. What you need to know about getting published, and even if an old pro, about half of the book is an explanation of the entire editorial process--from submission right on through post-production.

If you are serious about getting your fiction published, this book is indispensable. It treats authorship no differently from being in the retail world: Light-reading books are products to be marketed, and writers must understand, and accept, that to be successful.

Maybe you can raise the best hogs in South Carolina, but if you can not get them to market...what good are they? So knowing what editors expect from you and from your manuscript is invaluable.

If you are writing both for the emotional reward AND the potential profits, get your act together and learn from this book!
