Your blog makes me think about why some are better than others.Susan G.

Sometimes it is easier than others, as I learned when writing Chocolate Roses--a parallel to Jane Eyre. It is a very loose translation. Hopefully the reader still sees the parallel to the classic.Joan Sowardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06761461815550909124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723124266752750306.post-43553069946783345432010-06-07T15:53:03.531-07:002010-06-07T15:53:03.531-07:00I LOVED this.

I have played around with The Art of Homemaking a few times. It is not as easy as it seems.

Your post made me think of how much more thought I could put into my next book trailer if I had the time, money, and expertise of a group like Chiat/Day. (Come to think of it, my niece is an assistant account manager for them...maybe I should recruit her help.)<br /><br />Thanks for a very thought-provoking posting. We live in an age of multimedia and need to be able to "translate" our work beyond the written page and into other media...whether it's video, audio, etc. This is particularly true in this era of "branding."Tanya Parker Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14604769216009443552noreply@blogger.com
