Woo-hoo! Loved it! The Grass is Singing should ONLY be read in a Zimbabwean accent. Of course you made me completely nostalgic about an African winter, and those stunning warm blue-sky days. So from one dispersed African to another, this is a big thank you!

Charlotte, if I made one person nostalgic I achieved my goal :) I'm just sad the sync'ing is so far out on voice and image and that I couldn't fix that. Need to learn to do that if I intend to do more video.

Thanks for the compliments :)

Doris Lessing is so interesting. When you read Under My Skin and understand some of the experiences that must have shaped her life it makes her winning that Nobel Prize for Literature all the more poignant. Maybe to write we really need to have a life that is all tortured and miserable?

Tell me what you want me to know.
