Title: Green Thumbs on a Keyboard
Review: Roger Ladd Memmott is a master of words... he understands the art in writing. He understands the complexity of the many levels of impact every word, every turn of a phrase can provide when the stroke is as masterly as his. Again and again, I caught my breath with wonder. If there was any slight inclusion anywhere in this gem, it was perhaps an occasional overuse of a strong word/image, e.g. "switchfrogs." A word with that kind of uniqueness is not so quickly forgotten; a writer should be careful not to use it too often and thus lose that impact. But that's nitpicking. Memmott's wordplay and word artistry, perhaps at times overshadowing the storyline, excite the serious reader.
