This is my personal blog. It records notes from whatever I am currently studying, words I want to remember to use correctly, records of other things I want to remember, or an opinion I want to think my way through. Sometimes I publish short stories here. As to who I am, let it suffice to know I am a grandchild (with Madeliene L’Engle) of George MacDonald, a child of the Inklings, and the one who always wonders, “What is behind that wardrobe cabinet?” And, I’m one of the proofreaders/editors for Project Gutenberg, so, yes, I might be the one to blame for missing that wrong letter inserted by our optical character recognition. On the other hand, I may have been the editor who caught all the ones you didn’t find. And, I also have a personal journal online. It holds my innermost thoughts, is occasionally highly personal and opinionated, but is never really interesting.

Recently someone told me about a coworker who was so puffed up that the inevitable collision with a pin took out half the office. I told her that was Rule Number Eight. See my Rules of Life. Rule Number Eight states that the more you believe you are invincible, the more vincible you become.

Bridget Jones’s Diary by Helen Fielding
It’s the founding novel of the entire chick-lit movement, it’s based on Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice.” It has two excellent sequels, and its title illustrates the proper use of the apostrophe. What’s not to like?
