I don’t like playing favourites – there are too many authors I like, for a bunch of different reasons and whose work has been meaningful for me under various circumstances, none of whom can really be compared to each other. BUT there aren’t a lot of authors whose work I love and who are also among some of my favourite PEOPLE on a personal level. Which is why I decided to use Cait @paperfury‘s book today.
I’ve known Cait… I don’t even know how long. Probably about six years. Online only so far, since we live on opposite sides of the world, but I live in hope that one day we’ll actually meet. Neither of us can really remember how we started talking, either (a blog chain? A mutual friend?). But the details aren’t really important. We’re friends. We torment each other with our angsty writing. We have similar (though not identical) taste in books. We both keep the other up late because timezones are hard when you’re having a conversation. Etc etc.
Also, yes, I bought more fake flowers and got POSSIBLY a little bit too excited about them. I also bought these little butterfly embellishments specifically for taking photos of ATPN – when I saw them going cheap, I couldn’t resist, and I chose the packet that had the colour scheme most similar to the cover!
