I remember the "Carries War" TV series from the seventies!
Enjoyed hearing you answer questions from your subscribers. Your videos are the perfect length and always entertaining. In reading your book, The Novel Inside You, I really love the story of your first day at school! I believe something magic happened that day leading you to be the fine writer that you are today. I finished Love of Seven Dolls and enjoyed it immensely, wow, the power of LOVE. Need to read more of Gallico! Thank you for turning me on to him….I ordered all the books in the book club and I’m anxiously awaiting their arrival. Also, I too, have a variety of hackneyed expressions that I use in everyday conversation and in writing too that I am not happy about. But I really haven’t noticed it in your videos because you speak so eloquent. I hope you take time to read in your garden with a nice cup of tea….❤❤
Anyway - thank you for answering my question. And what an interesting answer. I have only ever watched one very amateur bookshop visiting video and I didn’t know that there were good ones. As the virus is not abating, I am still not shopping anywhere and some time ago I found videos where American women shop in their enormous thrift stores. These women then resell the peculiar things they have bought. Having been brought up going to jumble sales, these videos pleased me for a while. ANYWAY - thanks again for your answer. And I was glad to hear you say you were convivial in masks. If everyone still masked I’d not be stuck at home.
Your days at school sound very reminiscent of my own. The happiest times were when I could read a book, Carrie's War being one of them. I loved maths, but games/PE ...hated it!
Speechless ; ( . Socks loves you . Loved black books by the way ; it was a tonic . Nice to hear your choices . I think maths teachers are generally crumpy , my one told me to f$&k off , so I did and had copious days off as a consequence . Enjoy the summer.
Yes Morgan Long is still going
Ooh, you know Patricia Duncker. 🥰 Loved Hallucinating Foucault, I need to reread that.
She's been a good friend for thirty years!
Hi Paul. I missed my chance for a question so maybe you could answer this next time. If you were a primary school teacher how would you encourage your class to develop a love for reading?. I've worked in classrooms were reading is quite scarce and I 've also volunteered as a reading assistant listening to children read in primary schools. They always seem to enjoy being listened to. I just wondered how you would do it. Great video!
Love these rambles, Paul. Your story of the frosty bookseller reminds me of a weird snub I had (not by a bookshop, but a fellow writer I was working on an editing project with). When asked (at a dinner table full of industry people) what they had enjoyed about my latest book of poems, the writer said that they’d enjoyed the epigraph of the book! They looked as if they’d been half tempted to answer “the table of contents” lol
some people go to such efforts to be rude! i'm not sure what they get out of it.
