Low as in about waist high on me, and I’m 5’6″.

Also, as grand as the Gallery is, the lapped roof slabs do not look stable. Not to someone who is experiencing her very first attack of claustrophobia, at least. The Great Pyramid is still the only place that has given me claustrophobia.

I just picked up your book at BEA and it’s on my list for the summer reading challenge next weekend.

Your sensory detail in the blog post was great – can’t wait to read the book.

Sounds like a writer could read this book and learn a lot about the time and place, and about writing.

Leslie! GReat posts. I loved the book, as I think I already said, and it was pretty darned obvious you had some direct experience in Ancient Eqypt. Had I known the novel was autobiographical, and for the first time in decades, I’d like to see all that for myself. Kudos!

Angela, thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out your award! I also looooove mango margaritas.

And I agree with Angela. The detail in your book was amazing. I _still_ can see hear and smell it and it’s been a few months since I’ve read.
