Hello -
Thanks for the offer of friendship. I'm happy to be with you.
Not only did I enjoy your review of "Naughty in Nice," I bought it with the audio. Many thanks for introducing me to another author who is new to me.
Thanks again, Nila

Thank you! If you have trouble finding a copy, try through my website. It's temporarily out of print, although there are usually used copies around. But I have plenty and you can buy it via my website. Not the easiest arrangement and hopefully not necessary for much longer, but such is life in publishing today. I look forward to hearing what you've enjoyed reading.

Glad to know my reviews help readers and good books connect.

That review has more likes than any other I've put up. I guess it really hit a universal response to the book. I also love the topic--the Iliad, Achilles, Briseis. I'm in the process of getting my own book set within the Iliad published, so it's near and dear to me.

Hi, what a pleasant reversal--to meet a real, face-to-face, non-virtual friend on Goodreads. Hope the back is all better and the glorious October weather is making you smile.

There certainly are! I'll have to look for your book on Michal.

Judith, I cannot wait to read your book. I've thought about Briseis also. I also went to Cornell and took some classes on Mycenaean Greek culture and the ancient world. I never got into the Classics, but whenever I come across an ignored woman, I wonder what life was like for her. That's how I ended up writing about Michal--a misunderstood, forgotten footnote in the life of the great King David. Fortunately for us writers there are a lot of ignored, unsung women in history.
hi Judith, thanks for the friend invite. I look forward to books, discussions and friendship with you!

Not so many people choose Phoenix as one of their favorite places. Desert and heat can be an acquired taste.

Thanks! This is a great website. I've found out about so many books I would never have come across.

I haven't read it, but I followed his blog for a while (phenomenally successful, that was why I was checking it out) and I could see where your comments might arise. It's probably one of those books I should check out, but buried underneath piles of them as I am, I confess I probably won't get to it!

I haven't read the Tasha Alexander series. Sounds very interesting. Thanks for the recommendation.

Thanks for friending me Judith. I noticed your focus on the Iliad and I wonder if you've read Tasha Alexander's series Lady Julia Grey? Her Victorian heroine discovers her own intellect and falls in love with her dead husband through her study of Greek classics. Forgive me if you'll listed it as read somewhere, you've got quite the collection on your bookshelves and I'm still learning to navigate the site. You have marvelous books on your TBR list!
Thanks for the friend invite Judith. I see we're both fans of PD James. I'm going to go through your shelves to see what I can pick up from you :-)

I sympathize with the sentiment that there's too much to learn and so little time. Good luck with the travels through history!

Hi Judith and thanks for the friendship. I can't wait to be more active at Goodreads-but while I write it's difficult. I see that your area of expertise is more Hellenistic? That’s where I lack the most -haven't gotten around to it as I am slowly making my way through Akkadian and Sumerian history -which is my first love. After that it's Biblical era, which eventually I will run into Hellenism. There is so much and so little time :)

I enjoy Rhys Bowen's Molly Murphy series the best, so you can always give that series a try when you run out of Georgie ones.
