Anyway, for those of you who haven't got round to looking at the new site (or my shadowy yet carefree face) here's a little tempter. Martin and I thought it might be nice to put a few bookplates on there. We'll be adding some more later, hopefully. The black and white one is from an actual set of bookplates made for moi truly by Zoe a few years ago for Christmas. I am glad it's got a new lease of life. It's also the image on my long ago, ne'er pursued book-crossing page (it felt sordid leaving books in public, like littering - and these days, I'm more a library girl, but I love the idea of it.)

I know what you mean about realising you're cleverer than you thought. I think it's when the stuff that was unconcious surfaces into consciousness, like when you realise a psychological truth about your character is manifested in an otherwise senseless piece of metaphor -- or something... when intuition hardens into craft. Blah blah.
