do you like palatino
Yes, I do like Palatino! I very nearly used it for my books. I can’t remember why I didn’t, in the end: I think it was because it looks weird when used for extended sections in italic.
what country do school books come from?
Well, the only one I have to hand is an ancient Russian textbook published in Moscow in 1974, so I think it’s safe to say that at least some of them come from Russia.
Actually, I’d be more interested to know what country bad Jane Austen continuations come from, so that I can pressure my government to give them economic aid to help them stop it. If you find out, let me know.
amazon listing of books written
That’s gonna be a looooong list.
In other news, today I should have been writing but have instead been vacuuming, being locked out of buying groceries by Mastercard SecureCode, which hates me, and failing to buy Christmas wrapping paper. So it goes.
Ankaret Wells 
The Maker’s Mask is even now* winging its way to my parents’ for my Christmas reading. I have not been in a fantasy mood this term, but I look forward to devoting some comfortable hours in an armchair to it over the holidays.
*Well, actually not until Monday will it be in the post.
Yay!
I can promise you there is no bedroom French.
Now I’m disappointed 😉
There’s no bedroom anything in the first one. Well, there’s a couple of conversations in bedrooms, but that’s all.
That’s gonna be a looooong list.
But not as long as the list of ‘books not written’. (though I suspect you won’t find that one on amazon.)
Which is a shame! Because I really want Amazon to carry all the unwritten Antonia Forests.
