Food for thought

These lectures by both authors are intriguing and the recording is pretty good. The speaker is quite harsh on her s's and this can make it a little difficult to find the correct listening volume at times, but all in all fairly good.
A little gem

If you enjoy the classics, why not explore some thoughts on writing from the pros? As always, Julie does a lovely job !
