"Pray know that when a man begins writing a book he never gives over," he wrote in a letter during this period.

The bishop and Mrs. Proudie were very real to me, as were also the troubles of the archdeacon and the loves of Mr. Slope." But when he submitted his finished work, his publisher, William Longman
