Hello, everyone. I'm glad there's a good for Howatch books. I collect them, but haven't read any yet. Can you believe it? Are there any group reads for her...
Dear Laura B Welcome to the Howatch list. We are, I am afraid, a reasonably quiet lot. We have sudden rushes of messages and then we go quiet for a while....
Jan, please don't send anything else through the e-mail I used initially through the group. I forwarded my messages to another address. It's my workplace...
Surely 68 is no bar to writing. Dick Francis is in his 80s and still writing. John Mortimer (RIP) wrote until his death this week at 85.  I would be...
THere have been rumours for years now that she was going ot write shorter "mystery" type novels, but this doesn't appear to have happened.. I dont know if her...
Welcome, Laura. I hope you get a chance to get started on one of your Howatch books soon and let us know how you like it. I had read the "gothics" as a teen....
I take it SH doesn't have a web page, or it might say what she was doing. LARAINE A. RYAN, Attorney-at-Law 1601 Milltown Road, Suite 8, Lindell Square, Post...
I hope everyone got my long diatribe on reading MS Howatch. I spent hours writing it, and I do think it would be a helpful study guide for people who have not...
Yes, I love Glittering Images! When I first bought it - second-hand - it was on a friend's recommendation. It was one of the old black covers that made it...
Yes, as I have said before, I too love Glittering Images. I especially get blown away with the book after Charles arrives at Grantchester (is that the...
I was very impressed with this novel, too. So often, in novels, when the characters behave in ways that I consider odd or unlikely, it is a reflection of the...
Hi Jan, I think we read and did a little discussion here of Glittering Images in 2007. You can probably go back and read the posts. A few were quite helpful...
Jan, this is a great email. I think you did a wonderful job outlining SH's career (though leaving off the early simple gothics). I am an obsessive reader and...
Hi Tess and everybody here, I'm gad my efforts were appreciated. I spent a lot intellectual energy writing my entry. I have now finished Glittering images, and...
I had to chuckle -- I don't think the word "bloody" is particular to Susan Howatch's work. Cheers! Dorothy [Non-text portions of this message have been...
I enjoyed it; just finished playing and got all questions right! But I do love Starbridge.. DG In howatch@yahoogroups.com, "Laraine Ryan" <laraineryan2002@...>...
Well, I thought it might be a good idea to re-read something of SH's other than my favourite Starbridge series. So in October last year I re-read The Rich are...
Jan, thank you for your excellent info on Susan Howatch. I haven't read any of her books, and I will start with the earlier works. I like romantic suspense and...
Here's a list of authors that I once posted on this group, writers who share Howatch's interest in spirituality and faith and that you might enjoy. Welcome to...
... Thanks, Stephanie. Since I have ended up posting this several times, as new members have joined and asked for author recommendations, I decided to clean it...
