I have always been horrible when it came to research, never finding what I was looking for.Heather Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00632528059311088701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-60666056194068673952009-07-09T20:15:42.695-07:002009-07-09T20:15:42.695-07:00My dearest Obe,

I hope you're doing good!<br /><br />My dearest Therese,<br />Nothing will ever equal the brains and talent of an older gal. Nothing.<br /><br />My dearest Julia,<br />What is even more fascinating is how little she is known in comparison to so many of the other courtesans.

What a fascinating person. I agree, it's cool to see her grow in popularity over time. It says a lot for the person and life values.Julia Hunterhttp://www.julia-hunter.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-30613281550847507942009-07-06T15:40:01.166-07:002009-07-06T15:40:01.166-07:00I applaud you for choosing the older Ninon to have...I applaud you for choosing the older Ninon to have so much more life to use. Without the tragedies, the triumphs have no ring of truth. Truth is often more powerful than fiction, as it spans a whole lifetime. I have no doubt the School of Gallantry will live on with Ninon's blessing.therese patrick, authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14624202282411832436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-17556145912255219232009-07-04T09:55:42.104-07:002009-07-04T09:55:42.104-07:00how interesting.

Perhaps you'll do a book that are only letters between the Lord of Pleasure and the woman that taught him what he knows. <br /><br />Oh that might prove quite interesting..Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01356237143516426764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-39787703685981216942009-07-03T23:23:10.919-07:002009-07-03T23:23:10.919-07:00My dearest Antoinette,
Unearthing women like Ninon...My dearest Antoinette,<br />Unearthing women like Ninon from the pages of history is why I love to write the sort of characters I do. Because the grittier side of life was real. It wasn't all glossy "proper" society. And yes, to me, I felt the most heartbreaking aspect of her story was in fact losing her son twice.<br />Again, thank you for posting!Delilah Marvellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01560191814393878904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-73053672969061575382009-07-03T07:31:35.621-07:002009-07-03T07:31:35.621-07:00Amazing!

And that part about her son coming to her, and the result of her telling the truth...I can't even imagine the pain.<br />Great post. Thanks Delilah.Antoinettenoreply@blogger.com
