Have you read or watched The Neverending Story? The whole idea of being pulled into the world of the book is so real and magical. The huge bummer is that you always have to return again once you finish. We here not only make school trips to Mauthausen, but also to the Bavaria Film Studius where Furchur “lives”. On the contrast, on my exchange we made a class trip to a funeral home. 😯 I had nightmares for months.

I read Letters From Narnia this afternoon. Lewis was a great man, one I would have loved to meet. Which author that popular answers every letter that he gets. He replied to letters until one day before his death. By the way, if you want to do him a favour, dont call him Clive, he hated that name so much that he wanted everyone to call him Jack when he was only 4 years old, and he kept that up until the day he died.

You know when you read books about Mediums, or Mediums on Talk Shows they always say that the dead watch people looking through their photographs and so on. I wonder if Jack looked over my shoulder when I wrote that. Hmmm, probably not.
