I had a great complment on the night of our white cane banquet. A lady named
Bridget who is studying to be a writer was talking at our table and she said
she'd recently read a story that sounded like I'd written it. I've shared a
hand full of stories with her and so I said, yeah, which one?
She said it is a story my a lady named Shirley Jackson. The story is called
the "lottery". Have I ever read it?
Being over joyed she would put me in the same catagory as the famous and
excelent writer of "The Haunting of Hill House" I said Ah shucks!!! Thanks
so much.
Of course I'd read it, Shirley Jackson is one of the creepiest writers I've
ever read.
I think that is the nicest thing anyone has ever said about my writing. lol
I had to share!
Regards,
