So interesting, the dedication!<BR/><BR/>I stopped blogging Little Bun stories for awhile, at his request (he's far more private than Miss I), but then he asked why I wasn't telling Little Bun stories anymore, and recommended a couple to me, so back to blogging I went.abebechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05827016743055256735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14962422.post-54078244333395106072009-01-11T23:07:00.000-05:002009-01-11T23:07:00.000-05:00Ahhhhh. That's pretty impressive invented spellin...Ahhhhh. That's pretty impressive invented spelling for a first-grader, too. Elba did nothing but random consonants until almost the end of the year. She'd bring the stories home, I'd stare at them in consternation, ask her to read them, she'd look at the words, look at me, then run off for a toy.<BR/><BR/>Which was pretty darn charming in itself. :-)Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06118652456935364104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14962422.post-91796534210453557552009-01-11T20:04:00.000-05:002009-01-11T20:04:00.000-05:00Definitely no shortage of imagination around here,...Definitely no shortage of imagination around here, you're right on that score, Kathy.<BR/><BR/>Arwen: I'd love to have a Canadian-living kid some day (some days, I wish I'd stayed, but then there's the problem of how I'd have met Politica had I done that), but you have apparently forgotten Elswhere's <A HREF="http://elswhere.blogspot.com/2008/12/in-which-i-rant-about-fiction-of-entire.html" REL="nofollow">rant</A> on Cdn fiction.

Sort of a "yay, humanity!" sniffle. So there y'ar - she even had an emotive effect.<BR/><BR/>And if she continues to focus on setting, she can come live in Canada for awhile. The word on the street is that we're writers unnaturally influenced by geography.<BR/> <BR/>...Or that was the word 15 years ago. I'm actually not sure how the current thought in defining Cdn fiction goes.Arwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08558928485894882320noreply@blogger.com
