All writers love to write, love words, 44love to use words. But there is a difference between being a poet and a prose writer, 45and I'm given, probably because I'm longwinded, to writing novels.<BR> 46 <BR> 47 48The idea of writing an entire world--out in longhand, is what seems so magical about 49writing. Creating (or channeling, or intuiting, or dancing with) characters and letting 50them live through their lives is especially dazzling to me. So I mostly write books.<BR> 51 <BR> 52 53I've written five so far; four of them are available here.<BR> 54 <BR> 55 <SPAN class="title"><em>Grail Mysterium: An Adventure on The Heights</em></SPAN> is a mystery-adventure story set on the Boston College campus. Magic and superstition combine with history and hard-nosed research as a young undergraduate couple, Fran and Jack, undergo adventures in search of the Grail. Ghosts of historical characters, dragons, good and bad Jesuits, and fellow undergraduates constitute the cast of characters in this cross between <em>Harry Potter</em> and <em>The Da Vinci Code</em>.<BR> 56 <BR> 57 <SPAN class="title"><em>Memoirs of a Shape-Shifter</em></SPAN> is a gothic romance that takes place in Gloucester, 58 Mass, and was written before <SPAN class="lesstitle">A Perfect Storm</SPAN>. 59 It's got magic and love and mystery.<BR> 60 <BR> 61 <SPAN class="title"><em>Hide and 62 Seek</em></SPAN> is a murder mystery with a twist.<BR> 63 <BR> 64 <SPAN class="title"><em>The Scarab 65 Chase </em></SPAN>is a satire of academia.</P> 66 <BR> 67 68<P> </P> 69<P> </P> 70<P> </P> 71<P> </P> 72<P> </P> 73<P> </P> 74<P> </P> 75<P> </P> 76 77</div> 78</div> 79<div id="c3"> 80 81<p class="pictureprgh"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007G4VS4U"><img src="images/grail_small.jpg" width="141" height="211" alt="Grail Mysterium"></p> 82<p class="c3-text">Buy a copy of my new e-book <em>Grail Mysterium: An Adventure on The Heights</em> here (<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Grail-Mysterium-Adventure-Thomas-Kaplan-Maxfield/dp/0615309534" title="Grail Mysterium: An Adventure on The Heights">the print version is available here</a>).
