Revealing interview(s) with the Nobel Prize-winning author who defined and transformed American literature.

Hemingway was not only known for his understated style, but for his public image as America’s greatest author and journalist–and for the grand, expansive, adventurous way he lived his life.

Where do we find peace?

Mom Best

“Where do we find peace?
Peace is in the rosy softness of a new dawn breaking.
It’s the sound of the wind across the mountain peak,
the quiet and mystical beauty of a snow-flake drifting silence downward to a land blanketed in white.
Peace is the elusive Kingdom of the Soul.”

 

 

“You’re closer to God’s heart in a garden than any place on earth.”

(I have to keep practising at the publishing process, otherwise I quickly forget how to do it!). What’s that about 10000 hours ?

but then

Practise makes “purrfect”  (except for the spelling of author’s name, which should soon be rectified)

MOTOR RACING – A BIRD’S EYE VIEW

/ craig lock / Leave a comment

Write and Create (from Creative Writing Course)

abird27seyeview

Having a boy friend who is completely mad about racing cars, all shapes and sizes and about me (only one size), I was persuaded to go with him to our local car racing event, which is held at Killarney race track, some ten miles out of Cape Town.

As he was going to assist with the spanner-holding in one of the driver’s pits, he asked me to keep a record of the lap times and to make a comprehensive chart of the results of the various races. Unfortunately, I was so captivated by the racing setting and scene that times and charts didn’t enter into the race at all and this is now the afternoon (my first visit) at the races was seen by a feminine eye.
