Saturday is here...so that means WRITER'S CHOICE!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Time to dig through your Man from U.N.C.L.E.fanfiction and pick a story for the Writer's Choice! Tell us a bit about it, and why you like it please? If not one of yours, then tell us of a story by one of your favorite MFU writers!  Don't forget to provide a link, and remember this is a gen site, so appropriate links please.

Stories recommended for the Writer's Choice always get a nice response as the writers let us know if their stats are up...and they always are. So if the fics are one's you've read or are a first time read, take a second to leave a comment for the author if you can. They're always appreciated and comments can sometimes help a writer be inspired to keep writing, or start writing again!

Just to say I love the picture!

:D I think this is one of the original illustrations from "Winnie the Pooh"

Do you, like me, fan Hoff, as well? I even like the second book, as long as I remeber it's in a very different key.

fan Hoff?

[laurose8.livejournal.com]

Sorry to be unclear. I meant Benjamin Hoff's The Tao of Pooh, and its sequel The Te of Piglet.

And then there's Frederick C. Crews' The Pooh Perplex..? Delightful short satires, your fellows at uni were probably growling over that one's sequel, which to me was too true to be funny.

Wow I forgot all about that. I had a copy of it but I think I gave it to my (now late) brother. The book, like most of his things probably got tossed or sold. Will have to look to see if I have a copy...I'm thinking I do.

I have to go through all my books and reorganized them, they're a mess.

I've lost touch with so many books. I'm not near a bookstore and when I go to the library, I feel a bit overwhelmed. Never was a library person. I always liked buying books, but that's a habit that had to stop. At least I have all my Tolkien in hard cover...that was my goal. As well as my Chronicles of Narnia. (first books I ever got...parents gave to me for Christmas after I became enamored of the series)

My father gave me the Narnia series, too.

Generally when I go to a library, I feel a bit *under*whelmed. The modern stuff is so standardised.

Good luck with the reorganisation. It's an unfinishable job, but you come across so many treasures on the way. A neighbour's trying to do a bit of winnowing. The books don't lessen, but she's certainly enjoying the attempt.

I need to do a bit of winnowing myself. But you're definitely right about rediscovring forgotten treasures in the reorganization process! "D
