Top Twos-day – something borrowed something brainy

Something for your brain, The 50 most quoted lines in poetry, compliments of Inky Fool, aka Mark Forsyth, writer, journalist, proofreader, and ghostwriter. Forsyth penned The Etymologicon: a circular stroll through the hidden connections of the English language, and his blog states that the book is “…all about the strange connections between words in the English language. It explains the link between film buffs and buffaloes, monks and monkeys, science and going to the lavatory.”
Something for your emotions, hope…a newly agented Brittany Geragotelis’s did it, and you can too. Geragotelis used wattpad to attract enough of an interest in her book to turn the head of “…literary agent and a foreign rights agent and is sorting through an avalanche of proposals and related offers for Life’s a Witch and other projects…” according to Publisher’s Weekly. Success comes as her seventh novel, Life’s a Witch sees the light of day.
