It's always such a pleasure to come back to Willow's world. It's like seeing old friends again. I love the way you control this story, unfolding the characters and the narrative piece by piece so there is always something new to discover. Thank...

This is really interesting, Harry, and a really valuable resource. The myths can be so destructive. My daughter has epilepsy and the things people believe about that can still astound me.
As insert says, well done on giving the workshops...
