Lorne ,'Why We Fight'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Meara, that’s awesome about the sale, and I hope you’re feeling better soon.
I think I have finally kicked the migraine to the curb, and it’s a beautiful Autumn day here. We have a special presentation on bullying at ltc’s karate studio tonight followed by an ice cream social at her school. And then I think our weekend is free.
Oh! I’m halfway through A Hat Full of Sky, and I’m very pleased that the Terry Pratchett definition of a witch is something I can definitely relate and aspire to.
Tiffany Aching and Granny Weatherwax are two of my touchstone role models. I wish the Tiffany Aching books had been around when I was a preteen.
I still haven't read Pratchett's last book, The Shepherd's Crown. I don't know if I ever will.
I’m reading discworld in order and haven’t gotten to Tiffany Aching yet, but I do love Granny Weatherwax and all her witch friends.
Omg hilarious—so there’s an estate sale going on at my parents old place right now
Sounds like it is quite successful, and enlightening!
I put off reading The Shepherd's Crown for quite a while, Atropa, but I once I did read it I was glad I did. Lotta feels went with it, though, not gonna lie.

Same. Little Women and Anne of Green Gables were all very well, but my goodness I could have used those two as role models back then. I certainly intend to do that now.
Witches deal with things, do they? For most of my life, “dealing with things” was the most terrifying concept to me. It involves decisions and choices and risking people’s disapproval and walking paths that only go one way. And now I’m trying to square up and keep moving, because someone has to do it.
Or is it take care of things? That’s what I wrote down. One of you will know.
Deal with things is what I am finding online. What narrator are you listening to, smonster? I have Stephen Briggs (who I still think of as the guy who made the anorankh from my Usenet days but I see there is also a multi-narrator version that just recently came out and I'm curious about it
I’m enjoying the multi narrator versions. I don’t think they’ve all been released yet, but I have gotten as far as The Wyrd Sisters so far.
Stephen Briggs for both so far.
