I bought all the books I could afford and read Outliers last night. :)It was very sad, but the experience of turning a corner and stumbling on all those writing books was amazing. I wish I'd brought more money, :(<br /><br />Hi David, I don't know how it comes across online, but...I'm glad I found the sale. I've been talking to my kids about where my stuff needs to go after I pass and since they'd had plans to dump my books too (must be a universal kid thing) I think I'm going to make sure my will states it all gets boxed up and shipped out to someone who'll give it a good home.<br /><br />And I'm sorry she's gone. You can tell a lot about a person by the contents of their library. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14553958040386480998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869527318255268135.post-46753933710495759902013-10-20T12:09:09.240-07:002013-10-20T12:09:09.240-07:00I'm glad her writing life inheritance has come...I'm glad her writing life inheritance has come to the right person. :)David Bridgerhttp://www.davidbridger.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869527318255268135.post-75805047639761713302013-10-20T11:45:21.385-07:002013-10-20T11:45:21.385-07:00Jodi what an amazing story!

This is a ral, once-in-a-lifetime experience, a little bit sad and a little bit happy (for you) and yes, I agree, there's definitely a novel or short story hidden in there just waiting to be written! :)Edithhttp://inaroomofmyown.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869527318255268135.post-37880850387450848692013-10-20T03:01:35.825-07:002013-10-20T03:01:35.825-07:00It is, isn't it?

I've been wanting one just like it for years. :) *pats the table*<br /><br />Only another writer would understand how really useful it is to have more paper storage, lol!<br /><br />I've been running goggle searches, but nothing so far. I'll figure out the right keywords one day. :)<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14553958040386480998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4869527318255268135.post-74072279009007745852013-10-20T01:17:48.121-07:002013-10-20T01:17:48.121-07:00This is so sad.

Or if there were any of her mss lying around?<br /><br />The kids certainly didn't appreciate their mother's passion, and that says a lot about the relationship between them. Perhaps she poured her heart and soul into her pages and the worlds she created on paper and less into her RL world? Or maybe she took up writing late in life, when her kids were grown up and moved out, so they weren't around to see how she coped with feeling lonely?<br /><br />There's a story in there somewhere.<br /><br />And that's a very nice bedside table. Very functional!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789345714956252856noreply@blogger.com
