I don't do photos ever and I haven't since I was about 11.<br /><br />Now I'm really scared, that if I do eventually get a whole novel (as opposed to short stories and reviews) published they'll send out a professional. <br /><br />Really enjoyed meeting you on Tuesday, by the way. Now I'm thinking maybe I need a flat in Venice too!<br /><br />JeannetteJeannette Toweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02549517044119318384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-15708174183834236892009-11-12T16:37:15.556+00:002009-11-12T16:37:15.556+00:00Let me just recommend at this point Marge Piercy&#...Let me just recommend at this point Marge Piercy's novel 'Body of Glass' which combines the Golem legend with a futuristic android story and is fab.Nick Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307045090887391553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-82203015804147719212009-11-12T16:33:00.201+00:002009-11-12T16:33:00.201+00:00The origin of golem is an interesting one.

In fact, I've seriously thought of hiring a golem to take my place on publicity tours (younger, taller, more beautiful, more entertaining, with a louder voice and bigger hair and a suitably gothic signature.) I doubt anyone would even notice, maybe not even my publishers, since it's been so long since anyone actually saw me away from my computer. Only the cat would ever know...Katherine Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17196712319655603442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-71159841585288825962009-11-12T11:17:24.780+00:002009-11-12T11:17:24.780+00:00Fantastic post!

And as a Hebrew speaker, I've always understood 'golem' to mean (kind of) 'dumbo' or 'dimwit'...my Hebrew, I should add, is that of an intelligent six-year old! Interesting to hear about the cocoon. And I posted a link on balaclava the other day about marketing etc from the New Yorker, which ties in with this most aptly!adelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15826710558292792068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7780182174577095197.post-71211949403383937442009-11-12T10:36:41.302+00:002009-11-12T10:36:41.302+00:00Larfed my head off at this...
