I may just pick it up! :-) Thank you, Barbara -----Original Message----- From: Irene Duffield [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 8:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [bookworm] A Real thrill! I am not a writer but one of the people that read the books that you wonderful writers write. By the by, I would like to know the title of the book. I do not write but I am a character in one of Toni Kelner's books. I thought it would be a very small part but it turned out to be more of a medium part. I am around most of the book. I am quite proud of the fact that she put me in one of her books. I was something that I thought would never happen to me. Take care, Irene ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arvin P.
