I bet its fun to think about how your characters would react to the doings of the time.<br />And I also enjoyed learning how you developed a character from one of your earlier books. You caught a glimpse of what she was really like. What a moment that must have been!<br />Best of blessings on your many, many projects!<br />CeilCeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293917798735764739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-855485928545677951.post-29542998065084169762018-01-31T12:21:26.667-05:002018-01-31T12:21:26.667-05:00A Mother for His Family sounds like a heart-warmin...A Mother for His Family sounds like a heart-warming read.

After my research, I realized how I've taken so many things for granted, like Braille, which wasn't invented until the 1820s (I think...need to double check.). It's not in the book but of course Louisa will grow up and be able to read books using Braille!<br /><br />Thank you so much for coming by.
