Re: Well, that's a lovely Shakespearian poem you wrote there!

Thanks for reading my poem - the book I reviewed by Bill Bryson in an earlier post addresses the idea that Shakespeare may well not have been Shakespeare but apparently the argument is severely lacking in evidence.  For those who believe in a fraudster however Marlowe is certainly a contender...his time of death doesn't really support the idea but you never know!!

Well, that's a lovely Shakespearian poem you wrote there!

One of the things I like about Shakespeare, is that maybe some guy like... say, Christopher Marlowe... wrote all those beautiful plays and poems. Ah, the Mystery!

Hello there, Shakespearette! The master would be proud of you. Thanks for your comment on easy money.

I may play the bubbly blond very convincingly but deep down (as we all know) we writers are complicated creatures.  Hx

Re: Beautifully done

Glad you enjoyed (?) the poem.  Most of us lead awkward lives...no matter what colour our eyes are :o)

Beautifully done

and disturbingly self reflection generating for people who have lived awkward lives and have green eyes, like me.

ooooh, Helen - I'd hate to be in the wrong end of your writing quill! What wonderful imagery.
