		But Anna`s (her real name was Anna Haycraft) was remarkable.
		Anna wrote about husband, children, the cats, the neighbours, Beryl, Janet her all-purpose secretary and home help, the demise of the Latin Mass (she was fiercely Old School Catholic..) and everything else that cropped up in her crazy daily life.
		Anna died a couple of years ago and I wonder if she is not going through that slough which, like Purgatory, all writers have to descend into while they are being re-assessed and judged for posterity.

		In those far-off days Anna was not yet a writer (she would go on to pen several novels under the name Alice Thomas Ellis), simply the inspired editor of the publishing house of Duckworth run by her husband, Colin Haycraft.
		In the months before they published my book Harriet Said, Anna suggested I should be employed in the offices of the firm which was then housed in the Old Piano Factory some 200 yards from their home in Gloucester Crescent.
		Anna would answer the phone, welcome visitors, call out to her other five children (her sixth child had died aged two days old), instruct Janet, her nanny and friend, in what was needed for lunch, all the while continu ing to scrutinise the pages.

	Alice Thomas Ellis, Author, Dies at 72
		Her real name was Anna Haycraft and she was the wife of the publisher Colin Haycraft.
		As in her novels, so in real life: the Haycrafts inhabited a bustling world of domestic chaos, and in her journalism tales of domestic crises were interspersed with trenchant snippets of advice.
		After Colin Haycraft's sudden death from a stroke in 1995, friends reported that Alice Thomas Ellis was stricken by grief, but her own memories were typically matter of fact: "I forget now when it was that Colin died of a stroke," she wrote last year.

		Then one day she got a phone call from Anna Haycraft, wife of Colin Haycraft, the publisher of the venerable firm of Duckworth.
		Anna's advice to her as a writer was succinct: "Write about what you know, get yourself a good plot and cut out all the adjectives." Colin too had his own notions: "He didn't really like fiction, and he made me think about every sentence; he was incredibly strict about using the right word.

		Haycraft, like Johnson, ran into a Liverpudlian storm - in her case after writing an article for the Catholic Herald attacking the happy-clappy ecumenicism of Derek Worlock, the then recently deceased Bishop of her beleaguered city.
		Haycraft, unlike Johnson, refused to apologise and took her sacking like a man. Like the heroine of Loitering with Intent by Muriel Spark (with whose novels ATE's were often compared), Anna Haycraft had a gleeful line in gloom and "went on her way rejoicing".
		Ferdinand Mount, when he was editor of the TLS, quoted Haycraft before confessing that the modern novels he read with "real, deep pleasure are almost all written by women".

		ANNA HAYCRAFT began her life in London as a publisher’s wife, became the fiction editor in his publishing house and then turned herself into a successful novelist and columnist as Alice Thomas Ellis.
		The basement of the Haycrafts’ house became a notable literary gathering place, with its furniture acquired from the local junk shops, and Anna in those early days always smoking beside the stove, with a glass of wine on the table and her children running round.
		From 1970, Anna was in charge of fiction, while Colin, who claimed to despise fiction, concerned himself with the scholarly and quirky books he adored publishing.

		Haycraft remembers it differently, saying Bainbridge "needed very little editing".
		But it is a perfect little book, based on the story of the two girls in New Zealand who murdered the mother of one." Haycraft still sees Beryl as one of her greatest friends: "She makes me laugh - and she is a drinking companion; what more can one ask?"

		If there's anything that seems essential to the idea of the muse, it's that she must be in possession of Hörigkeit, that quality of abject submission only the Germans would be compulsive enough to have a name for.
		Anna Freud, something of a daughterly muse herself, conjured up a similar mind-set with the phrase ''altruistic surrender.'' In her case, behind all the high-minded psychoanalytic theory lay the rueful recognition that the spotlight -- the serious work -- was to be reserved for male genius.
