We had two others. I have no idea what the problem was unless it had to do with different ISP's/computers as Dr. Debra suggests. I do apologize though. It's frustrating when the idiot software won't accept something it's designed to do.<br /><br />I, too, loved the Crystal Singer series from Anne McCaffrey. Heck, I loved everything she and Andre Norton wrote. And, too cool, you've mentioned some authors I haven't read yet! That won't last long, lol.<br /><br />Thanks to Dr Debra Holland for the great post and for all of you who left a comment or tried to leave a comment. Hope you all have a Blessed Day!Lynda K.

I'll have to check her out.<br /><br />Beth, I LOVE the Pern series. I like the Crystal Singer series, but not as much.<br /><br />Mona, thanks for the infor about the quote. I loved Mary Stewart and Helen Macinnes, too. Never heard of Elswyth Thane. Another author to check out. :)Dr. Debra Hollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04556327521528996385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28436164.post-46435572031960151222011-12-06T03:04:31.894+07:002011-12-06T03:04:31.894+07:00"If I have seen further, it is by standing on..."If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants." attributed to Sir Isaac Newton.<br />Andre Norton is high on my list of writers who have mattered for a long time. Also Elswyth Thane, who wrote a wonderful dynastic series about Williamsburg, VA families, rich with romance and history. Third in my trilogy of beloved authors would have to be Mary Stewart except, oops, there's also Helen MacInnes. All of these women wrote their own books in their own way, and touched so many lives.

As high school librarian, I tried to read as many books as possible for teens and thought her books were among the best.<br /><br />Jacqueline Seewald<br />STACY'S SONG--YA romance in print and e-books<br />TEA LEAVES AND TAROT CARDS--adult paranormal romanceJacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.com
