A Writer’s Notes #49
Here are some colorful suggestions from Moses Hadas (American teacher, classical scholar and translator) on how to respond when authors like me give you a copy of their most recent book for comment or review:
“Thank you for sending me a copy of your book—I’ll waste no time in reading it.
This book fills a much-needed gap.
I have read your book and much like it.”
Forewarned is forearmed!
P.S. Please excuse the chaotic, irrational use of photos on my page; I simply don’t have the Facebook skills to make them behave!
