Alright Robert, I will throw in my two cents. I think a book discussion
is a good idea, but I really think it could and should be a seperate thing.
The writers discussion is already very busy at times and it seems to be
filled with things to benefit writers trying to write. A book discussion
may be related in a stretch, but I think we need to concentrate on our
books, poems, what-have-you and not those of other published authors no
matter how great and inspiring they are unless they are giving instruction
that would help us. Just my opinion, but you asked. Eve Sanchez
