The combination of spirituality and writing appeals to me greatly.John Kachubahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08525451407319138598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2563329377857150033.post-31840589142351114652011-02-16T08:21:46.218-05:002011-02-16T08:21:46.218-05:00Very much like the background picture.

She passed away over 40 years ago, but I remember seeing Thomas Merton's book, The Seven Story Mountain, in our house, and it was one of the few books she actually bought, since the vast majority of books we read came from the library. Let me know what you think of it after you finish it. And may you and Mary have a safe and happy journey.<br />Hugs,<br />ClaireFionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08666863887681505997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2563329377857150033.post-41042512304118363852011-02-15T11:08:07.455-05:002011-02-15T11:08:07.455-05:00Thanks, Ann, I hope you enjoy it.

The background art -- slanted pictures, the blank TV screen, the chipped paint -- combined with appeasing hungry ghosts is all creepy.
