(1) page 202: par. 3: lines 5/6: “Once she has … here.” There seems to be a word missing before ” a plan”.
(2) page 414: par. 4: last sentence: “Where before she … now she LAYS curled…”

First book I have read by you. You are a wonderful writer. I have been elevated. Thank you for this glimpse into the lives who walked beside my favorite painters. I have often thought -if I could do anything, wildest wish kind of dreaming, I would choose to go back to Michelangelo's time and meet him. When reading your book I just finished The Birth of Venus.

I am in the middle of Sacred Hearts and loving it! I look forward to meeting you tomorrow night in Atlanta. You met my sister-in-law in San Francisco last Thursday. She's the woman who creates history kits, and I'm the woman working on a novel set partially in Italy from the Inquisition through the 1800's. I'm really looking forward to hearing what you have to say about your research. Sarah, your writing style is phenomenal. I am in the middle of Sacred Hearts and loving it!

There are still several, of which she is a c0-author, that I have never been able to obtain. I guess they are out of print. My two favorite writers serveal years ago, were Sarah Dunant and P.D. James, both of whom I felt wrote beautifully, albeit in differnt styles and on differnt subjects. Unfortunately, once you settle on your "favorite authors," you will quickly become an impoverished reader if you do not start "fishing" for other authors to read. I have weaned myself off these authors exclusively, otherwise I would not be reading anymore. I was SO excited to discover that Ms. Dunant would be publishing a new book _"Sacred Hearts" in late July. I discovered this in early June and put in an early order so I could receive the book as soon as it was available to the public.
