#writersquote It is impossible to discourage the real writers; they don’t give a damn what you say, they’re going to write. (Sinclair Lewis)

'The landscape is vividly drawn, the detail impeccably researched and brought to life, the emotional content harrowing' writes @Williams13Anne #Review: The Tuscan Daughter by @harris_tessa @HQstories #publicationday #histfic #Romance #TheTuscanDaughter beinganne.com/2024/04/review…
#writersquote The mind travels faster than the pen; consequently, writing becomes a question of learning to make occasional wing shots, bringing down the bird of thought as it flashes by. (E.B. White)
It was SO MUCH FUN dropping by my “local” - RiverRun Bookstore in Portsmouth, NH - to see my book is front and center on their local authors/super heroes shelf!

Writers. Do you use initials at the start, on in the middle, of your name, like J.K. Rowling and George R. R. Martin? And if you do, tell us why. I much prefer to use my whole name. Well, my whole pen name - Shaun Stafford (Shaun Martin).
#writersquote Sleep is good, he said, and books are better. (George R.R. Martin)
And it's a fun read!
An ordinary German soldier's perspective of Normandy ...
#writersquote Reading is a way for me to expand my mind, open my eyes, and fill up my heart. (Oprah Winfrey)
THANK YOU, Loraine and S. for warming the cockles of my heart with your Amazon Reviews of Choosing Sides. THIS is why I write historical fiction.
#writersquote No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader. No surprise in the writer, no surprise in the reader. (Robert Frost)
#writersquote Let others pride themselves about how many pages they have written; I’d rather boast about the ones I’ve read. (Jorge Luis Borges)

@April_1970s Good book, interesting angle that it comes from
@April_1970s Fallada's personal life is an equally tragic tale.
@April_1970s It is a great choice that you will enjoy 🤝🌹
@April_1970s Great book and a timely read. You might like Robert Musil’s, The Man without Qualities (Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften; 1930–1943).
@April_1970s Excellent read - I would also recommend Fallada’s Iron Gustav. Regarding the end of the Third Reich - All for Nothing by Walter Kempowski is a masterpiece.
@April_1970s Brilliant novel though short on slapstick humour
@April_1970s It’s a challenging read but worth it.
@April_1970s Have you seen the film?
