4.0 out of 5 stars
uneven, but when it's good it's very good,
By A Customer
This review is from: Six Exceptional Women: Further Memoirs (Hardcover)
I am about to buy it as a gift for my mother after having read it (from the library) when it was new. Some of the six stories could be skipped but two are so compelling that I think of them often and look forward to reading them again. They are La Mere Ubu and Errieta's Risk. Enjoy

Six Exceptional Women,
This review is from: Six Exceptional Women: Further Memoirs (Hardcover)
James Lord's sketches of "Six Exceptional" women seriously influenced my own style of writing--particularly how I use first person anecdotes to pull the reader into a scene and introduce her to the woman about whom I'm writing. My style and voice have evolved over the years--I write for national women's magazines--but Jamie was the author who first made me see the potential in this approach. You can see his influence on my style in my latest book, Blessed: Living a Grateful Life, which was just published by Readers Digest. Blessed: Living a Grateful Life Or you can see a couple of excerpts at theblessedblog.com
