My Kindle novel is called The Cambridge List, a dark comedy thriller set in Cambridge University: A student's use of unlicensed antidepressants causes him to hear the voices of the Greek gods, who compel him to murder his professors one-by-one. The book follows the journey of this emergent sociopath, whose crimes turn out to have consequences unforeseen even by the gods themselves. <br /><br />Thanks for the chance to mention it on your blog!Robert Clearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15483171151721144134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-285913204707798277.post-16007280907802581202011-06-22T05:23:00.187-07:002011-06-22T05:23:00.187-07:00Thanks Robert.

I can't claim to have the secrets of a master novelist, but what you've said here certainly seems to ring true. I'm always struck by how similar the process of writing is to having a good conversation. Each is satisfying for its own sake and is buoyed by rhythms it invents as it goes along (which in both cases are remarkably alike). Ironic, really, that writing should be a solitary exercise!Robert Clearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15483171151721144134noreply@blogger.com
