Well and Truly

The other review on this page using the tag line "horrible" is being disingenuous. Someone has taken my freelance business moniker, modernscribe, and my name, lisa, and perpetrated a review to make it look like I wrote it. I only wish I had caught this back in 2002 when it was authored. I took Evelyn Mayerson's class and read her book Miami as well as several of her other novels. She was an outstanding teacher, and I would NEVER have authored such a scathing review of her or her book. Dr. Mayerson was supportive and complimentary toward my work, so the disgruntled reviewer is probably a jealous student who also attended that class. Too bad the "reviewer" isn't working on his or her own writing instead of spending time trying to hurt Dr. Mayerson and ruin her impression of me. I honestly thought Well and Truly was a memorable book; though I read it back in 01, I still remember the well-conceived plot, the delicious characterization of a girl on trial, and the moving story of what a woman does when her identity is in question.
