She had men crawling at her feet up until she was 80!!! I have an earlier post about Ninon, you can check out.

I actually think some of the modern day "business women" could learn a thing or two from them in personality skills and correct "marketing" techniques.<br /><br />I'm still looking for a story that has a courtesan that is more "out of the ordinary" - one that is a little two plump or has freckles but someone with that great personality that makes everyone look to her with awe.jeannemiro@yahoo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-63940924419695548992010-10-10T15:51:21.550-07:002010-10-10T15:51:21.550-07:00My dearest SiNn :D,

It was so much fun to play producer and screen writer, lol.<br /><br />My dearest Charlotte,<br />I am *always* looking for books. Email me anytime with any list you think would be up my alley. And thank you!!! That is so wonderful of you to think of me, knowing how busy you are with your own writing ;)<br /><br />My dearest Lila,<br />Ninon should be quoted as *our* favorite courtesan, lol. I'm so thrilled you enjoyed the post, and totally agree. Women's concerns haven't really changed much. Just the environment. Thanks for posting!<br /><br />My dearest Obe (nancy!),<br />LOL, you are so right. I wish I could have gotten a hold of one of these ladies and got all the stories. I wouldn't have to worry about coming up with another story idea for some time...Thank you for posting!Delilah Marvellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01560191814393878904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-13048632997931575052010-10-06T07:28:59.709-07:002010-10-06T07:28:59.709-07:00Oh very good post, yes I bet those dear ladies had...Oh very good post, yes I bet those dear ladies had something to tell us.

To quote my favorite French courtesan (17th c.), Ninon de l'Enclos,“If God had to give a woman wrinkles, He might at least have put them on the soles of her feet”. <br /><br />Funny how in hundreds of years times haven't changed much as we women today concern ourselves with wrinkles, too. It's even more problematic if having wrinkles can effect your marketability.<br /><br />I so enjoy your blog! Looking forward to your next post! Oh, and I can't wait for that Scandal series. :)Lila DiPasquahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876414703678878405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-50594975248919849012010-10-01T07:04:27.005-07:002010-10-01T07:04:27.005-07:00Fabulous post!

The first is Harlots, Whores and Hookers--amazing information on the history of prostitution and how it was looked at, and the other one I forget, and I'm too lazy to traipse up two flights of stairs to my study to find it! but if you're interested let me know! lol!Charlotte Featherstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13785725026005235430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1620996278470405682.post-59296260295746000892010-10-01T02:23:39.828-07:002010-10-01T02:23:39.828-07:00yAy! newbooks r gonna be out of urs does a happy d...yAy! newbooks r gonna be out of urs does a happy dance and one coming out on mybirthday score thats an added incentive great post cant wait to read thesebooks I loveeddd the book trailorSiNnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13975065072902528623noreply@blogger.com
