L is for Loki

When I was a teenager, I read an amazing trilogy of books by LJ Smith. No, not ‘Vampire Diaries’, though that came shortly thereafter. The Forbidden Game. Some of my blog readers already know this, so I’m sorry for the repeat information, but...

K is for Kelly

When I was young, maybe five or six, my father’s boss told me he didn’t like my name. Looking back now, I think that was probably a horrible thing to do to a child, but I love my real name now, so no big deal. However, the desire to please the adults...

J is for Juicy
