Please add comments to authors in new list...
Edited on Thu May-26-11 11:55 PM by fadedrose
If you like, copy and paste your original remarks under the authors' names from the old list ...thanks a lot...fadedandexhaustedrose.....

I love the old list because of its comments by you - but it gets me dizzy trying to find somebody's name. Even if the author's name that you might add is not in perfect alphabetical order, it'd still be easier to spot if its at least in the same alphabet letter group...

thanks again

This was a lot of work. Thanks so much for doing this. Your list has introduced me to several new-to-me authors.

You must have gave the list post a lot of thought, it is so well organized. I love it, love it, love it!

You are wonderful for doing that. I'll be putting that to work for a looooooong time.

Thank you very, very much, LS

PS: Have a nice weekend everyone. I'm hitting the road in a couple of minutes to go up to Maine (Acadia National Park) for the long weekend. It will take about 6 hours to drive from my home here in MA. See you guys next week.

4. Thank you for the "thank you's"
I was afraid someone or everyone would say, "who does she think she is, anyway?"

I love fiction, particularly series fiction. Amen.

6. Mostly, thanks to you...
the list's biggest single contributor with all good authors and good descriptions - and you showed me the way by alphabatizing your authors...
too bad your write-ups are left behind. Maybe when you get a chance...hmm....

You are a darling boy and thanks for your help...

7. Fadedrose, I put some comments in the new list. Did I do it right?
I hope others will also take the time to do comments (or cut & paste their original ones) to the authors and book series they had recommended too.

Your new list in alphabetical order and so organized is much appreciated. You are the best for doing that!

8. You did real good...
Maybe it'll start more people reading series books when they see how many and the variety of stuff available. Our enthusiasm for them I hope will be catchy - it sure helps the libraries when you request books that were written 20-30 years ago (even more in some cases).

And I didn't start reading series till I was 67 or so - not that long. Let's hope some new people come in and find stories they didn't know existed from this pool of thoughts from so many people.

Please keep up with the comments - they are more valuable than the names.
