![]() ![]() ![]() I left a comment sharing a brief bit about how my aunt was responsible for the start of my owl collection and how her book had influenced my choice of collectables when she’d asked me around age eleven if I had a favorite animal I might like to collect.Įverything I said was true except my memory of the book cover which is ironic when you consider that it’s been sitting on a bookshelf in every place I’ve lived over the last 40 years except for those that occurred during my transient time in the military. ![]() ![]() I’ve loved owls from childhood when I read a book written by my Aunt Wylly called The Ghost Next Door. Kyran recently wrote about her owl collection and asked if any of her readers had collections as well. Owls you say … stifling a small yawn perhaps. It turns out that in addition to our expat identities as women who married and moved for a love met online, we both collect owls. I think I found her around 2006 when I discovered there was a community of folks doing something called ‘blogging.’ Her talented husband, Patrick created a logo for me back in 2007 which helped me track time through old emails, but I’d be hard put to come up with an exact date.Īll this chatter about memory, dates, and Kyran Pittman is due to a comment I left on her website, Planting Dandelions a few days ago. I’ve read Kyran Pittman’s work for longer than I can remember beginning with her first blog, Notes to Self. The Ghost Next Door by Wylly Folk St John. ![]()
