Holy Bookmark Quest Day 5: Disciples & Detractors


Standard reading on the Island of Lowrankland


The story so far:

The Sacred Script Vision: Complete Trudy Harper Psychic Investigations http://geni.us/1l36 is being smuggled through Kindle Kingdom. Followers of Hero of the Written Word, Jane Sharp,  the Gran who would be King, are carrying the 20 psychic parables throughout the land and sea, hidden in their tunics. The followers have the tunics, not the land and sea though landlines can carry electronic books and many people read in seabed.

The books have to hidden. The Big 5 Giants of the Land of Publishing demand their Gatekeepers approve every book before the subjects of Kindle Kingdom are allowed to read it. They will not approve the Sacred Script which has to be widely read as part of OUR HERO's Quest for the Holy Bookmark, Kindle Top 10 Suspense/Psychics.

Jane is exiled by the Big 5 to the Island of Lowrankland where the Muse Urania is holidaying. The Muse has concocted an elaborate plan in which Count Down Deal will sell copies of 5 of Jane’s stories Vision the Reluctant Psychic http://geni.us/3y7d as bait to have the subjects of Kindle Kingdom crying out for more.

Jane wonders if the complicated plan is a ruse and the Muse Urania does not have OUR HERO’s interest at heart. NOW READ ON:

Tables are turned


WE all know what the expression "the tables are turned" means. It  says roles are  reversed. But why isn't it "the table is turned".
       I can think about stuff like this intermittently over a week or a month. I usually give up after a year if I have not figured it out.
       Anyway the table is turned here because I an giving an interview rather than taking one.
