Wahoo! Thanks, Cindy! I love Grace Livingston Hill's books. That's
interesting, though. Of all the books I've read from her, including the ones
that were redone but claimed to have everything as it was originally, none
of them had interesting spellings of anything. Some might have had words
hyphenated in ways we don't use now, but I don't remember any interesting
spellings. It doesn't matter, though. I love her books and will be looking
forward to reading this one. I haven't read it yet, but even the ones I have
read before get reread. She's just one of those authors I don't mind
rereading! *smile* Take care.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Christian romance approved & uploaded
I've just approved and uploaded a Christian romance
(Gerald, here is an example of a Christian romance as
opposed to what I thought was but is just a general
wholesome novel about good people.) entitled Cloudy
Jewel. The author is Grace Livingston Hill, who is a
well-known Christian Romance writer -- in fact, in the
online biography I read, she's considered the
"pioneer of Christian romance." Her life reads like a
Christian romance.
This book was originally written in 1920. It was
republished in 1989, but the publisher left everything
as it was. Thus words that we don't hyphenate today,
e.g., today, upstairs, are hyphenated: to-day,
up-stairs. The one that really surprised me was
superintendent -- super-intendent. Also, the spelling
is more like the English spelling of words, and some
words, like "clue" are spelled differently --clue is c
l e w. There is also some dialect.
It's an enjoyable book. I liked the characters.
Cindy
