Can't think of any specific bit of information gleaned, but my husband will occasionally point to me when people are struggling and say, "Ask her, she's a garden of information."Kaithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07758348842858993203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-51674451307221980022023-05-25T11:51:30.948-04:002023-05-25T11:51:30.948-04:00Love it!

The challenge is using enough of what I've learned to make the reading interesting but not so much as to bore people. I once had an agent tell me that I wasn't writing a "how to" book so, cut some of it.Grace Toppinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10291304815273486038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-77780797981543351582023-05-25T09:20:59.539-04:002023-05-25T09:20:59.539-04:00Did you know that the original spelling of the nam...Did you know that the original spelling of the name is Stewart, but was changed to Stuart by Mary Stewart who became Mary, Queen of Scots) when she married the Dauphin of France (who became Francis II) and moved to France. Because the French pronounce "w" differently, she changed the spelling so people would pronounce her name properly.
