Even though he couldn’t hear the righteous solos and earsplitting riffs, Brocklehurst cowered in fear. He knew that Jane was coming to melt his face off.

Hi Elizabeth,
I just want to share with you this picture…the picture I would never have imagined that it would ever exist.
If I would get a chance to meet Ketut Liyer three years ago, oh God, I would wish no one to be in his shoes. He would encounter grim, anxious person with damp eyes and endless hope in it. I would claim the old noble man to unleash my problems, to answer my questions, to turn my destiny…
But now in 2013 I am visiting Bali not for prosecuting the solutions of my issues. I am here for idyllic vacation with my precious loved one. There were neither a plan nor an intention to find the healer by all means , but the atmosphere of the island made me feel the need to proceed… to proceed to plunge into the pages of the book.
And I did find the porch. That was a moment of deja vu. I have been in this garden before, I have seen this porch before, that wide gray eyebrows have captured my attention in some moment in the past. Turning the pages of the book, I did experience this journey already.
Now in my present , in April 2013, I haven't demanded from him to impress me …with details from my past ( I am aware of slightest ins and outs of my past and I am not quiet sure I want anyone to remind me it) .. I haven't claimed to penetrate in my future as I know its going to be bright due to I'm working on it now.
I Just Felt Relief . It took me a long journey, much longer than from point A to Bali.. I did it shoulder-to-shoulder with myself, I made my own mistakes, which now I prefer to regard as a lessons. Now I am healed, I am happy, I am loved and I am in love.
Thank you for your books!!
JANE EYRE BOOK CLUB…a wonderful idea! A follower of this page named Zoë Mun…
JANE EYRE BOOK CLUB…a wonderful idea!
A follower of this page named Zoë Muntaner (who has the same ë in her name as Charlotte Brontë, by the way) has just posted on my wall a great suggestion.
On Saturday June 8, when we will all be meeting on this page to discuss Jane Eyre, she suggests people organize some actual in-person book clubs in their homes or local libraries/bookstores, as well. She has been kind enough to offer up her home in Santa Monica for one such rendezvous, and welcomes people to Skype in to join the discussion, too…and also promises a walk on the beach, after!
Very sweet, and sounds fun. If anyone else wants to turn this virtual book club into a physical book club, feel free!
And I will meet you all back here on June 8th (or. as I call it, JANE 8th) to begin the discussion.
On that day, in homage to the great Miss Charlotte, I shall be spelling my name this way:
Ëlizabëth Gilbërt.

WALLY LAMB! Just wanted to share with you all this photo, taken yesterday at…
WALLY LAMB!
Just wanted to share with you all this photo, taken yesterday at the Book Expo in NYC, of me and the marvelous Wally ("She's Come Undone") Lamb.
In this photo, he's the lovely gentleman on the left, and I am the one on the right, dressed like a giraffe.
Like me, Wally's got a new novel coming out in October (a wonderful read called "We Are Water"). Thus, yesterday we met on a panel to discuss books, book clubs, social media, Oprah Winfrey, writer's block, the roots of creative inspiration, and "Days of Our Lives" (Wally's favorite procrastination device.)
You know how sometimes you dream that somebody you've always admired will be really great in person, and then you meet them, and they aren't? Well, Wally Lamb IS. The best.
Wish you all could've been there!
Liz
