Like the very nice librarian who read The King's Peace and said "You know, this is good. You should write a real book."
I have a friend who always says things like this; he'll read the short fiction but he cannot stand fantasy -names-. When he hits a fantasy name, be it character or geographical location, he cannot keep going. So he frequently tells me that I should write a real book.
Actually, Jo, I think you met him -- Justin, the train enthusiast, who lives in Montreal. He has so many other good qualities, that this particular quirk mostly amuses me.
