Influences

Monday, December 6th., London.

On Saturday night I finished my second book, "The Art of Journalism for Women".

This afternoon, reading in the New Review (which this month ceases to exist) the conclusion of Joseph Conrad's superb book, "The Nigger of the Narcissus", I had a mind to go on at once with my Staffordshire novel, treating it in the Conrad manner, which after all is my own, on a grander scale.
