"Open the book to page ninety-nine and read, and the quality of the whole will be revealed to you." --Ford Madox Ford
Ford Madox Ford was an English novelist, poet, critic and editor whose journals The English Review and The Transatlantic Reviewwere instrumental in the development of early 20th-century English literature.
I'm always trying to figure out a passage from my books to post. I open a book thinking I'll post my favorite part (which is a failed endeavor because each book as many favorite parts) and I end up reading more than I meant to with nothing to post. I'm not saying I agree with Ford, but I figured I might as well post page 99 because it gives a glimpse that you cannot get from the blurb on the back. So for the next few weeks, starting tomorrow, I will be posting page 99 from each of my books. I hope you enjoy!
