Maybe the nerdiest thing about me
March 2, 2025 @ 1:34 pm | Filed under: Assorted and Sundry
…is that I have a recurring weekly task in my Todoist to remind me to practice saying Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (the longest place name in Wales).
You know, just in case it ever comes up.

I love it!!
I lived near Llanfair PG (as we called it) for my junior year abroad (decades ago)… I always like to be reminded of it!

Hi Melissa, I am a freak too – any new books on Laura Ingalls Wilder, the extras written by you and others. I stop at 72 books/articles etc but im sure there must be more.
Please, please tell me you can get me the books on Martha and Charlotte and some more, i need to read it before i go Home one day.
It was a huge discovery to realise your the age of my eldest daughter Rile and my youngest also a author Adrienne Woods of the Dragonian series and nearly 100 other books.
Would love to hear from you.
Love
Marie (75 but a child when it comes to reading Lauras history! Sorry for my Afrikaans-English)

Hi Marie, Thanks for your lovely message! I’m sorry to say there will be no more books in the Martha and Charlotte series. I’m delighted to know you have enjoyed my books and I wish you much joy!

Hi!! My kids and I are listening to your Zoom recordings of The Prairie Thief and loving it!! The link for chapter 10/11 isn’t working. 🙁 Is there anything you can do on your end?

Hi Aubrey! I just saw your question on Instagram but I’ll reply here too in case others are wondering. The first 11 chapters were recorded/hosted by Brave Writer during a special lockdown event in 2020. I’m wondering if they’ve had to retire some of the hosted videos. I believe Chapters 10-11 may have been the last video recorded by BW—after that I continued reading the rest of the book on FB and IG Live. The chapter 12 link opens in IG, so I believe the rest of the links should be available. I’m sorry for the inconvenience!
