What I think it means is that we push ourselves harder and harder to produce something better. I think what we learn from these books is what we don't like and how we don't want to write!Ness Harbourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07370427313780759711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2961986208219275679.post-52924152542246428282011-12-28T11:14:49.262+00:002011-12-28T11:14:49.262+00:00I do so agree with you about reading Ness, but I&#...I do so agree with you about reading Ness, but I'm a little dismayed that the last three books I've read have left me cold, and all for different reasons. One made a scientific error that undermined the whole plot and destroyed my ability to suspend disbelief. Another seemed to think that sewer contents were funny for their own sake and the author couldn't keep his own rabid political beliefs under control. And the third, well I blogged about that one.<br /><br />I'm not sure what I've learnt from these books except that it seems the more I write the more I seem to demand. It hasn't stopped me from reading though - it's just that I'm searching for something that doesn't disappoint me. Then I might be able to learn something useful!Jeannette Toweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02549517044119318384noreply@blogger.com
