The Pancake Chronicles
My name is Colleen.
I love taking my time and finding beauty and humour in things before they happen - as in seeds and salamanders.
"The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the Mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where I ought to have been born. Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back."
C.S. Lewis - Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold
"Look, it's not in my nature to be mysterious. But I can't talk about it and I can't talk about why."
Rusty Ryan - Ocean's Twelve

yup.
I just love the word 'bracken'. It reminds me of The Velveteen Rabbit although I don't even know off the top of my head if the word 'bracken' is even in that story. But still, that's what it reminds me of and I love that story.
Sonshine! Me, too. In fact I am sort of collecting different illustrated books of The Velveteen Rabbit. I love how people draw the story from their own perspective.
Did you write this? It's beautiful. Worthy of Dylan Thomas! x
Oh Cat, you have a way of encouraging me like no other! Yes, I wrote it. Thank you.
any questions?
