Why, yes, I am a wonderful human being, and so are you. Let's meet and have corn muffins some time.
I just wanted to say thank you. For being a bright spot in my childhood, and for giving it back again so freely.
I admit, I’ve never read one of your children’s books, but I was listening to the audio tapes of “Fishwhistle” when I was 8, maybe 9. (I won’t say how long ago that was, but it wasn’t long after it’s release)
About 10 years ago, I started looking for copies of the tapes to buy, hoping to transfer them to digital files to listen to on my phone. The few I could find were priced high enough to fund the next Death Star (well worth it, to my mind, but sadly beyond my means). Nevertheless, I kept looking through the years.
Eventually I decided to buy the kindle version for the memories. I was reading it this evening, periodically pausing to look up something you’d mentioned, and that’s how I found this page.
And there was Fishwhistle in all it’s wonderful absurdity, read in a voice I’d found comfort in when comfort was rare, available free to download.
You are a wonderful human being.
