From Art to Literature


Fio keeps pulling masterpiece after masterpiece off her arts-and-crafts shelves and posting them on FB, but, as in real life, hardly anyone cares. Photography has taken over the pages nowadays.

Fiorella was born an artist, and, luckily, from that first picture of the vacuum cleaner that she drew when she was two-years-old, her mother recognized her talent and supplied her with paper--a hard thing to do during wartime.
*
Your girl has been hard at work emptying the arts-and-crafts room lately. Yesterday, she bounced a big box full of handicraft stuff down the stairs and set Doggies to barking up a storm. 
     By the way, did you know that used to not only sew, but crochet, weave, and embroider? Hope she has the time to take of some of these again.

Lolly's story, of course, is "forever on her mind," and it's coming along, although a whole day was lost untangling a plot line that had wound up in the wrong chapter. Oh, did you say you'd like to hear a little from Fiorella's latest heroine? Well--here she is!
*   
Lolly's day brightened as she looked down the path and spotted Cotton coming around the bend. But who was that woman with him? She slipped on her prescription sun glasses. God, no--it was the history witch! And Cotton was holding her hand as if they were a couple!
    Dammit! What did Ms. La-De-Dah have that she didn't?"
