Two things near and dear to my heart.Īs a Latina, infusing my culture into the writing is very important to me and as a family of law enforcement/military, as well. Jaeger, a mystery/suspense allowed me to be creative with the part of the world some of the story took place and with the law enforcement aspect. I love the search aspect of hunting down the particulars, whether it be about culture, area, profession. Once I decide to write a specific type of book, the research begins. Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words is happy to have Evelise Archer here today to share a little bit about herself, writing, and her latest novel in her Order of the Black Knights series, Jaeger. ![]()

Additionally, this picture book happens to be extremely funny. Jules Feiffer has created such a picture book. ![]() ![]() Though adults actually enjoy “reading” wordless and nearly wordless picture books, youngsters take great delight in these books. Since there are so few words in the story, the pictures must carry most of the action. Really outstanding picture books of this genre need to have fine plots. Wordless and nearly-wordless picture books need to have outstanding art to keep the attention of Kindergarteners.

You’re not alone, and it’s perfectly normal to struggle in a new environment and buckle under the weight of elevated expectations.

The problem is that 1) the book really does drag, as any “action” scenes are separated by lengthy chunks of narrator commentary, 2) the existing plot is disjointed, as Brown seem to have changed his mind about the direction of the novel, and 3) the themes presented in the book are not quite thoughtful enough to compensate for how slow the story is. ![]() While reading, I tried to keep in mind that Brown likely did not intend excitement as one of his primary goals of the book-even if his choosing to write a novel in the Gothic genre implies he was aiming to include at least a little suspenseful creepiness. Even avid classics fans may find it a bit dry.Īs is typical with much early American writing, Wieland is lacking the type of strong, fast-paced plot that we often associate with good modern literature. Wieland may be of interest to students of early American literature or of Gothic novels, but I am going to go out on a limb (actually, forget that it probably isn’t a risk) and say that the book does not have a lot of mass market appeal. ![]() ![]() Their peace is interrupted when the group begins hearing disembodied voices, eventually prompting Theodore Wieland to commit murder.
