Charles Dickens Would Have Been 200 Years Old !

Charles turns a double century  Yesterday , 7th February saw the 200th anniversary of the birth of English author Charles Dickens, author of such classics as” Nicholas Nickleby” ,” A Tale of Two Cities”,” Martin Chuzzlewit” ,” Oliver Twist”, “Bleak House” and “A Christmas Carol”.  There were a number of celebrations throughout the UK.He was born in Postsea and spent his early years at Bloomsbury and Chatham in Kent. As a child he read voraciously, his near photographic memory of people and events of his childhood were used extensively in his writings. Part of his education was spent at the Private William Giles School in Chatham. When his father was imprisoned Charles, then 12 , was boarded with a family friend Elizabeth Roylance , ( she was later immortalised with a few alterations as Mrs Pipchin in “Dombey and Son” ).

Favorite Book
Rebecca , Lincoln Lawyer , Harvest , too many others to mention
About Me:
I am a book lover and rarely have a book out of my hand. I enjoy reading a variety of genres of book but by far and away my favourites are detective, suspense, thriller, murder etc. Favourite authors include Michael Connelly,John Grisham, Peter Robinson,Jeffrey Deaver,Jeffrey Archer,Simon Kernick,Tess Gerritsen,Martina Cole, Patricia Cornwell, Kathy Reichs and Agatha Christie among others.

I also love Thomas Hardy and Daphne Du Maurier books, and in 2012 I am planning to read more classic novels.

One of my passions is finding new authors (to me).

I run an internet based book shop selling mainly second hand, out of print and some rare books. I have almost 25000 books in stock at any one time.

My website can be found at www.stortbooks.com, Stortbooks also has a blog set up in January of 2012 which can be found at http://stortbooks.blogspot.com/
Stort Books also has a Facebook page and a Twitter page details of which are below.

Hi! Welcome to Book Blogs—if you are in the oftentimes horrific proposal / query letter process and are hunting for that elusive agent OR… if you have decided to go the ebook way…then remember the proposal process isn’t just for agents. A proposal is your marketing strategy! Join me at The Agent Challenge and leave me a comment. Also, I’m giving away the 2012 big book of agents or a book from one of our mentors. Drawing from followers at the end of February!

Hi Val, thanks for the support.  My fans are mostly women and girls, so your 13 year-old son may not find me so charming.  I certainly would not have been a fan of mine at 13  ;-)Let me know what he thinks.
