Website Updates - October

Unfortunately there won't be any new reviews this weekend as I'm not around but last night I refreshed the website and added extra countries to the bibliographies page. These country listings are based on the author's place of birth, rather than where they are now living or any new nationality they may have taken or the country they are writing about, which may be different to where they were born.

Website Update
State of play at 20.10.11:

  • The Bibliographies page now has more authors by 'Countries', plus I've removed the 'Eastern Europe' catch-all and put in the individual countries.

  • The Author Websites page now lists 906 sites.

  • The New & Upcoming Releases pages have been updated (added since last weekend: Tom Benn, Jane Casey, Michael J Malone, VM Whitworth and Felicity Young).

  • In Bibliographies there are now bibliographies for 1691 authors (8680 titles with links to 2090 reviews):

  • I've added new bibliographies for: Tom Benn, Philip Carter, Patrick Conrad, Dean Crawford, Bernhard Jaumann, Eva Joly & Judith Perrignon, Vilmos Kondor, Selma Lagerlof, Rosamund Lupton, Mark Mackay, Michael J Malone, D E Meredith, A D Miller, Mark Peterson, Sam Ripley, Norman Russell, Alex Sharp, Christopher Wallace, Jan Wallentin and V M Whitworth..

    I've updated the bibliographies (ie added new titles) for: Harry Bingham, S J Bolton, Gyles Brandreth, Simon Brett, Declan Burke, Jane Casey, Agatha Christie, Michael Cordy, Elisabeth J Duncan, Gordon Ferris, Elly Griffiths, Lucretia Grindle, David Hodges, Arlene Hunt, Maxim Jakubowski, P D James, Peter James, Tobias Jones, Mons Kallentoft, Christobel Kent, Barry Maitland, J D Mallinson, Liza Marklund, Glenn Meade, Zygmunt Miloszewski, Harri Nykanen, Martin O'Brien, Anne Perry, Matt Benyon Rees, Phil Rickman, Michael Ridpath, Jarkko Sipila, Anna Smith, Cath Staincliffe and Felicity Young.
    If you spot any errors or omissions do let me know.

    You are a heroine, Karen. The database is such a great resource, thanks so much.

    We have noticed you mention the author Lucretia Grindle, and we would enquire if you would have any means of a contact for Lucretia Grindle. as my wife had dealing with her whilst she was a 8/9 year old and looking after her young brothers and sister, whilst living
    in Benenden Kent England, in the late sixties.

    Just a thought but with many good wishes and thanks
