I love “Dear Diary” writings, or books that are written as letters (known as epistolary novels). These entries are sort of random, – not necessarily fiction, as much as they are a light-hearted and zany. If I ever were to write a story, I’d be very drawn to this type of story-telling. What about you? One of my favorites of this genre is “The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society” by Mary Ann Shaffer (although I did not like her portrayal of Christians and her observations about God). I also enjoyed “Dear Mr. Knightly” by Katherine Reay. Please let me know if you’ve got a book like that to recommend to me. Anyway, I might follow through on this as a short-story fiction device. But not today.
This has sort of been Fiction Friday by Me.
I’ll probably delete this in the morning…
Did you or Ruth ever read the Dear Diary books? They’re books for young kids, but I always really loved them.

I don’t think we knew about those. I should ask Ruth! Do you think you’d enjoy them as an adult?
