| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 01/26/10 at 02:02 PM the image in the first line sparkles! my fave: "a shoe dangles curiously from her toe as the words skip and spill from the pages onto her lap." As always, you capture a moment like no other! |

| Posted by Nanette Bellman on 01/27/10 at 05:27 AM I love how you turned this beautiful piece about literature into literature. Very clever. Makes me want to pick up a good book and get lost and find something I'm looking for. |
