We Skyped with her last year as part of World Read Aloud Day, and she acknowledged that she had not visited any of the countries she has written about. (She also referred to "the country of Africa," which my third graders corrected her on. Awkward.)Katie TheLogonautshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01692992719352402255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2599471237636371761.post-11576750962242816232017-03-06T10:44:04.319-08:002017-03-06T10:44:04.319-08:00Good Pirate will indeed be perfect for 'talk l...Good Pirate will indeed be perfect for 'talk like a pirate day.'

I've a two baby quilts for grandchildren due on June, so I'll be using the machine for those also. I want to make time for more writing.

You've made me really want to read it now, though! I agree, Cloud & Wallfish really would be a good match with A Night Divided. I liked both of them. Sorry for your cousin's problems. Hope all goes smoothly! And, Good Pirate is one to save for "talk like a pirate day", right? Thanks Cheriee.

Are you hand sewing or using a machine? I used to make baby quilts by hand when my kids were little. Now writing is my creative outlet instead but I think I will go back to it someday.S.
