Readers may wish to visit her Violet Books site , which contains additional information on Corelli, nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century science fiction and fantasy, and book illustration of this period. [ GPL Time was, Marie Corelli was the most widely read author England possessed. Journalistic slurs against her talents and person rarely harmed sales, and usually increased them, so that the press additionally castigated her public for its bad taste. Perhaps, instead, the public should have been commended for not falling for the press's self-congratulating maltreatment of an author who couldn't have been all that bad or they would have ignored her altogether. She was quick to feel slighted but just as quick to assume herself cherished. Many did cherish her, of course, for her delightful traits were easy to embrace by many who actually visited her, as opposed to slandering journalists who judged her from afar. Arthur H. Lawrence, who met with Marie and Bertha on multiple occasions to craft an 1898 interview for The Strand thought her "sweetness itself," and was disarmed by her "veracity, the personal charm and sincerity, the real feminine grace of her every movement."

Scriptorium - H.P. Lovecraft The Scriptorium is an index of experimental twentiethcentury authors, and this page Lovecraft became so irked at the contributions of a romance writer, http://www.themodernword.com/scriptorium/lovecraft.html
Extractions: The ancillary question "Why read H. P. Lovecraft?" seems to have been definitively answered, if the millions of hardcover and paperback copies of his work in this country and the translations of his stories into fifteen or more languages around the world are any testimony. Lovecraft has always had a divided readership on the one hand youthful enthusiasts of fantasy, on the other hand a small band of writers and critics (from T. O. Mabbott to Jorge Luis Borges ) who can see beyond the tentacled monsters that adorn the covers of his books to the philosophical and literary substance of the work itself. It is perhaps this first group of readers that makes the critical establishment so dubious: how can a writer so popular be of literary worth? This is a very real inquiry, not an attenuated relic of literary aristocracy: although we are flooded today with volumes of supposed scholarship on Stephen King, there is still little reason to believe that his work merits much attention.

About William Steig William Stieg is a children s books author and Caldecott Medal winner. Joy Anderson writes in Dictionary of Literary Biography Steig is at his best in http://www.williamsteig.com/williamsteig.htm
Extractions: About William Steig (1907-2003) Click here for articles on William Steig Called the "King of Cartoons" by Newsweek , William Steig has carved out dual careers as both a highly respected and entertaining cartoonist and an award-winning, best-selling author of children's picture books and novels. Illustrating for The New Yorker since 1930, Steig has produced more than sixteen-hundred drawings as well as onehundredseventeen covers for that publication. His cartooning work is collected in more than a dozen books. Beginning in 1968, at the age when others are contemplating retirement, the then sixty-one-year-old Steig launched a career in children's books, bringing to that medium the same tongue-in-cheek and sometimes gallows humor that has made his adult work so popular. With his third title, Sylvester and the Magic Pebble , he captured the prestigious Caldecott Medal. Many critics, including Roger Angell writing an appreciation of his colleague in The New Yorker , consider this to be "still his masterpiece." His first venture into children's novels, the 1972
