How dreadful!!!

Post by Almas »

While browsing through the internet I was simply SHOCKED to see this photo. Some drip had cut up Enid's face and pasted it over a model's body. How dare they do like this to the photo of our beloved authoress? :evil: :evil:

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.

When once the itch of literature comes over a man, nothing can cure it but the scratching of a pen.

Perhaps Kirrin Island was based on one of these? :wink:
This is a Green Knight Book which means that it is a book by one of the most popular authors of all.
