We're having Dogwood winter in north AL so it's cool and damp although not as cool and damp as RI. FanGRRL gushing at my age is not attractive but a good friend recommended your work a short time ago and I was intrigued that you also grew up in AL but I had not read any of your books. I'm currently reading Low Red Moon and the part where Deacon is reading Dr. Seuss' McElligot's Pool made me literally laugh out loud as that is the book that began my lifelong love of reading. 2nd grade, Mrs. Oakes class, and I read and reread Seuss, but esp McElligot's Pool, until she pointed me to other books. I wanted to write and thank you for your work and how it is thought provoking and a pleasure to read. As I've read your blog and follow as you share the blood, sweat, and tears of creating the work it has given me a deeper appreciation of your writing. Silk is still ruminating in my head a little even now. Okay, embarrassing gush over. I'm hobbling off now to continue reading in Low Red Moon. My best to you and Spooky.
