Indeed, it was rejected by the Saturday Evening Post in 1940, and seven other magazines subsequently turned it down before it was bought by "Ellery Queen." Faulkner received $300 for the story, and then another $250 because it was selected for second prize in a mystery fiction contest the magazine sponsored. It originally appeared in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine in June 1946 - six years after it was written. "An Error in Chemistry" is the fifth story in Knight's Gambit, Faulkner's 1949 collection of six detective stories published by Random House. They gave star stickers to those they like and dot stickers to those they dislike. Lucado creates a community of Wemmicks who have the habit of giving stickers to their fellows. It's not at all about narcissism or focusing only on yourself (maybe not the perfect title) but rather about how to not get knocked off your center by the opinions of others. Because we are, in fact, "re-parentng" ourselves or being "re-parented" by the process and love in recovery rooms, children's books work especially well I think. Most people I know in recovery have to work at that concept for quite sometime so when I found this beautifully illustrated book I was hooked. But really introducing the idea that they do not have to be unsettled and uprooted by the opinions of others. Do you know the book, "You are Special?" by Max Lucado?

( )Ī lovely little interlude from heavy reading, this early mystery was reminiscent of one of my favorite Daphne du Maurier novels, The Scapegoat. The key elements of the plot seemed transparent to me early on, so I enjoyed this as a relaxing read, full of detailed descriptions of a horse breeding and racing household in post-WWII England. Where is a very clever mental exercise, is a clever tale of a scam that encounters unanticipated wrinkles.
