I've begun reading Alan Moore's Voice of the Fire. The premise is very good, I think. It incorporates several characters spanning over 6,000 years all living in the same area in England (I forget the actual name of the area and the book's not near me, but it's where Alan Moore actually lives). I've only read the first part and most of the second part, and both of the stories are pretty violent. It's kind of unnerving. Considering the purity and beauty of Promethea, I guess I wasn't expecting something so dark from him, but there it is. I guess he encompasses a real continuum of emotion.

I read another feature about a different writer in Poets & Writers. Pat Barker, who's written several novels. Her first novel was published when she was 39, so I feel better about not being too published yet myself. Her latest novel, Double Vision, sounds really good (they all do, but I think I may start with that one and if it's good, continue on the bibliography).
