Featured Author Joel

[FreeThinker]

Congratulations to the Featured Writer for August, Joel! He is an excellent choice! His work is excellent. Tom Browning's School Days is a delight for anyone who enjoys the canon of the English Public School story. His attention to detail and the historical research and the references to scientific work and studies occurring at the time of the story are remarkable and delightful to read. Strong characters and an engaging plot. I've already sung this story's praises, so let me also praise Mystery and Mayhem at St. Mark's, a story set at Cambridge University, and Flip's Tale. Joel is a great choice for this month's featured writer.

Evidently the forum's housekeeper came in with her dustpan and broom because only one posting is now available.

I'll second your comments on Joel.   He's a very compelling writier!

Joel is certainly an imaginative writer, and a lovely correspondent via email.  The St. Marks series and its spinoffs represent quite a saga, extending over more than a century.

Reading that oeuvre would be a project of many weeks if not months.  I think I have read everything he has posted here except the last chapter of Jamie.
