This Week's Fan Fiction

Friends at Last

an AU Another World story

Unsuited To Each Other
Chapter 2 is now up

I'm Looking Forward to Reading This!

I've just pre-ordered this book.

Pioneer Girl: The Annotated Autobiography by Laura Ingalls Wilder and Pamela Smith Hill, which will be published in late November.

It should be interesting, not to say intriguing, to see the differences, as well as the similarities, between the reality and the fiction.

Update on Bishop Sheen

Here is some more information regarding the suspension of

Bishop Sheen's Cause.

Finally Blogging About This

This is a cute incident that happened at least two years ago, when I was still living in Brooklyn.  It's something that I've always planned to share eventually.  Well, eventually has

become now.

  Often, when I'm sitting on the sofa, Winky will climb onto

the back. Every now and then, he will reach down and pet

me, the way that I pet him.

One day, Winky was stretched out on top of the computer that

I had then. (The one I have now is too thin for him to be able to

to that.)

I started to watch "Life On The Rock" on YouTube.... and Winky

reached down and petted Fr. Mark!

A Post a Day

I miss the days when I used to post something on this blog every day.  In a way, doing that kept me on my toes as a writer.  (Or should I say "on my fingers?"  After all, I don't type my blog posts, or anything else, with my toes!)

Well, I've decided to go back to posting something new here

every day.

I have to admit that one reason (perhaps the reason) I've made

this decision is that I've just started re-reading Dandi Daley Mackall's "Blog On" series!

Fulton Sheen sainthood effort halted

EWTN shared a link.

about an hour ago

This is a great disappointment to me.. and I'm afraid we can start looking for
some Catholic-bashing over this.
