blog friends: Charlotte
I started reading Charlotte's Web about two years ago I suppose and was immediately captivated. Charlotte is writting a book, a book which, when it's published, I'll be first in the queue to buy. Then after I've bought it I'll be driving to the Burg to get it signed (all this despite the fact that I am terrified of driving and the idea of the autobahn fills me with dread).
Charlotte reads and reads and has grown up travel adventures. When I discovered her blog I think I spent a day and a night just reading and reading and reading.
It's funny, you know, (apparently that's my catch phrase for when I'm about to deliver something I've been thinking about for a while), but almost everyone I know who I really really like are people that have been transplanted in some way from what's familiar to them into a situation where they've had to re-learn everything they know.
I hope, one day, to visit Charlotte in The Burg and drink a few very very large glasses of something bubbly in her garden, while barbecuing, preferably making lots of smoke to annoy the neighbours.

Thanks for the kind words, Ash, and the vote of faith in my novel! Please don't wait for publication to come and visit, though. If you don't like driving, you could take a train.
Hey hey hey, you've been away from Africa too long!! When you and Charlotte get together, you will BRAAI, not BBQ!! :o)
In fact, if Charlotte will have me, I'd like to join you in the garden for the bubbly & braai. I'll promise to make peppermint crisp fridge tart :)
Charlotte rocks. She is my reading and writing inspiration and I love what you call her "grown-up travel adventures". She has a way of verbalising the thinkgs I only vaguely manage to think...
