James' or James's - Creative Writing Forums
Oct 3, 2020 · At the age of about six, I was taught that James' is correct and have stuck to it ever since. But this morning, I received a review of my latest story... and apparently apostrophes at the end of names ending with 's' should read James's or, to use my own character's surname as an example, Myers's .
Possessive apostrophe and names ending in "s". - Writing Forums
Sep 24, 2011 · This has always been a curiosity for me too, but a recent publisher's house style guide gave me a great answer a few months ago that I've been using since. I'm not sure how correct it is, but it's definitely logical and reflects the contemporary James's trend: James's (belonging to James) James' (I'm going over to the James' house)
James Patterson - Creative Writing Forums
Apr 2, 2013 · James Patterson, I think, just wants his novels to be easy to read for everybody, and that is why they are on the bestselling list. Plus he still has his own passion of writing. And it shouldn't matter of what type of story you decide to write, even if it is cliche' or predictable.

James' or James's | Page 2 - Creative Writing Forums
Oct 3, 2020 · Actually, we usually DO pronounce the extra 's.' For example, how would you say that Henry James wrote The Turning of the Screw? I reckon you wouldn't say, "Henry James novel The Turning of the Screw. " You'd say. "Henry James's novel, The Turning of the Screw." Wouldn't you? Or 'the Jones's picket fence,' rather than 'the Jones picket fence.'
The James Patterson Method - Creative Writing Forums
Dec 30, 2007 · James Michener used first person a lot in his novels to put himself at the periphery of the story. In "Tales of the South Pacific", he narrated most of the novel in 3rd person, but inserted himself into a few of the chapters as a minor character. It gave a sense of him really having been there.
The Mystery of Rhythms in the King James Bible
Dec 13, 2009 · Maybe a moderator could move it there if they would be so kind, but I thought that my piece had much to do with word mechanics, becaause it pertained to the usage of words in the King James Bible, and how, following the best of its rules, the King James Bible achieves rhythm almost as if without effort on the part of the translators.
Short Story Club (2): Araby by James Joyce - Writing Forums
Feb 18, 2013 · For this discussion, we'll be reading "Araby" by James Joyce. It can be found here. "Araby" is part of Dubliners, a collection of 15 short stories. In my opinion, "Araby" is the second best story in that collection (after "The Dead"). It's a short and straightforward story, so for those of you who are new to Joyce, "Araby" is a great place to ...
Songwriting James Taylor on songwriting - Writing Forums
Mar 6, 2016 · I saw an interview with James Taylor some time back, where he gave advice on songwriting. One piece that stuck with me was this method: He'd take a song he'd like that somebody else had written, and either write new words for it, or a new melody. Then he'd take that new song and write a new melody or new words for it.
