Yeaaah, no.

Good luck, though. I'm pulling for you!

Yes, it added an extra thing to go, grump, this sucks at, but I'm thinking about doing a trip north after my application is all sent in.

I love it so when kids argue and feel real in a book!

. . . uh possibly it is no surprise that Diana Wynne Jones fans are often also Pamela Dean fans.

[ceitfianna]

Nope not at all. Though now I wish I knew where my copy of Tam Lin is since that's one of my favorite books ever, but its kind of proof of how weird I can be.

For years the only DWJ book I had read was Charmed Life

Oh, I was the same way with Pamela Dean for years and years - Tam Lin has been one of my favorite books ever since I was pretty young, and I vaguely knew she'd written more, but I never got around to reading any of it until I saw the Secret Country books on sale in a bookstore one day a year or two ago and was like ". . . . oh hey!"

That's exactly what happened to me in Ann Arbor, I saw this book and went wait I know that author and like her. I first found Tam Lin because a really horrible English teacher had it on her shelf and then I just went and found my own copy since I liked it so much. I blame it partly for my interest in classics.

I already like it and I'm only into about the first couple of chapters and I figure a good library or used bookstore should have it.
