About the authors
Charles Dickens was born in 1812 near Portsmouth where his father was a clerk in the navy pay office. The family moved to London in 1823, but their fortunes were severely impaired. Dickens was sent to work in a blacking-warehouse when his father was imprisoned for debt. Both experiences deeply affected the future novelist. In 1833 he began contributing stories to newspapers and magazines, and in 1836 started the serial publication of Pickwick Papers. Thereafter, Dickens published his major novels over the course of the next twenty years, from Nicholas Nickleby to Little Dorrit. He also edited the journals Household Words and All the Year Round. Dickens died in June 1870.
I wrote my first novel at age 3, taking a ream of paper and a pen and mimicking the squiggly writing that I had observed grown-ups using. Okay, it was twenty pages of scribbles, but to me it was the Great American Novel, and my grandmother seemed to be pleased with it. Today I still enjoy writing novels, short stories, novellas, screenplays, stage plays, and lyric plays. Perhaps the mark of the writer is not what he writes, but that he writes. I always enjoyed comedy, so my first few efforts were of a comedic nature, and I will always instill some humor even into my more serious, mainstream works.
I have been trying to crack the secret to writing classics; I try to read mostly authors whose works have remained in print for eighty years or more. Still, I have time for more contemporary works, like those of Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Robbins, and Douglas Adams, to name but a few. I think I may have struck upon the crucial sequence, plots, characters, writing style and everything to keep me published for a hundred years or more. Now I just need to sell some books.
I have recently resettled in San Antonio, Texas, to try to remember the Alamo. No matter how deeply I concentrate, it still feels a little before my time.

I am always amazed when I read Dickens at how well crafted his sentences are. I think anyone who has a love of the English language will also love most of the Dickens novels. I have a hard time choosing a favorite. I read Tale of Two Cities for the first time in high school, and I keep coming back to it. I've read David Copperfield and A Christmas Carol umpteen times each, and Oliver Twist, Great Expectations, Hard Times, Bleak House several times each.
I highly recommend this collection of Charles Dickens novels to anyone who enjoys excellent prose. He was undoubtedly one of the best writers that the English language has ever produced.
What if I tell you that there is a way to keep the benefits of the revolutions we've had since Adam and Eve: cognitive, agricultural, religious, scientific and industrial (the further extensions being Electrical, quantum, transistor, integrated chips, internet, mobile and now the social media) revolutions?
Well? It's not even a new thought. What say you?
Enjoy the present. Why not?
