What Happens When Cassie Black Meets Peter Grant?
Hello Bloglandia! No book is an island. Hmmm...I don't think I have that quite right. Although if the book was large enough, I suppose it could serve as a raft. Sorry, the point I was originally trying to make is that most writers take inspiration from other books or stories or legends. You certainly saw … Continue reading What Happens When Cassie Black Meets Peter Grant?

Crossing the Line in London
Okay, okay, that title should be "Crossing the Line in Greenwich," but "Crossing the Line in London" appeals more to my alliteration-loving sensibilities. During our recent trip to London, Mr. Husband and I seemed to be making up for all the things we wanted to do last time (way back in 2013), but couldn't manage to squeeze … Continue reading Crossing the Line in London
