The Cult of Lincoln

Tuesday, September 11, 2007



Madeline L'Engle died. I just now found out, as I'm quite behind on my flist.

Did you know I included farandolae in a 5th grade project on cells, because I didn't realize she'd made them up? She might have had a detrimental effect on my biology grade, but her influence on my imagination and sense of wonder was quite the opposite.

Thank you.

har! that's great, i read all of her books as well. too bad we couldn't make a l'engle science project together.
 
It seems that I attended some event years ago, and she was there...she autographed a book that I brought home to you. You were such a wonderful fan! --Mum
