uses of the asterisk? Do quote marks go inside or outside
punctuation? What about a quote within a quote - a quote from

an ellipsis? What's the difference between an en dash and an em
dash? Snails and Monkey Tails is a show-stopping guide with more

They must set aside their own plans and rely on their faith to
bring their true destiny to light. Lilac Nielsen's dream has come
true: handsome young Reverend Ethan Pritchard has finally noticed
her. Yet she must balance this new courtship with the pursuit of
another dream--the publication of her artwork in a New York paper.
She has secretly been submitting a series of drawings under a pen
name, and if anyone traces the drawings back to her and finds out
where Lilac and her sisters settled, the entire Nielsen family
could be in danger. As their family farm expands and Lilac's
relationship with the reverend grows, it's a time of new
beginnings. But when a family crisis back in Ohio shakes the
Nielsen sisters, can they continue to build the new life they've
begun in Nebraska? And will Lilac be prepared for what God has in
store for her future? Â Â "A tender story. I know my
readers will enjoy these stories and look forward to the books yet
to come."--TRACIE PETERSON, bestselling author of the Pictures of
the Heart series
A renowned scholar of the English language, Tolkien is today
celebrated as the father of the high fantasy genre. Drawing on his
knowledge of languages, mythology and legend, he created an entire
alternative reality, Middle Earth, and populated it with hobbits,
orcs, ents, dragons, magicians and giant spiders. Packed with
fascinating facts about Tolkien's life and labours, this delightful
volume includes extracts from his works, letters and interviews, as
well as from his contemporaries and admirers. It's a celebration of
the writer whose imagination and creative genius changed the course
of fantasy literature. 'I would rather spend one lifetime with you,
than face all the ages of this world alone.' The Fellowship of the
Ring (1954) 'I am in fact a Hobbit (in all but size). I like
gardens, trees and unmechanized farmlands; I smoke a pipe, and like
good plain food (unrefrigerated), but detest French cooking...'
Tolkien in a letter to Deborah Webster, 25 October 1958 In July
1915, Tolkien took part in the Somme offensive, the bloodiest
battle of the Great War. While recovering in hospital from trench
fever, he wrote his first Elvish word list, as well as the first
fragments of what would become The Silmarillion. The inspiration
for The Hobbit came to Tolkien unexpectedly in the summer of 1930,
while he was working his way through a huge stack of student
essays. On a blank page he found himself scrawling, 'In a hole in
the ground there lived a hobbit.'
