Sorry to hear you had a hard time growing up. Perhaps this book won't be for you – reading it, I was given Proustian jolts back to memories of childhood and made me want to write them all down (although not for publication).<BR/><BR/>Glad to hear that comics had a positive influence in your growing up.Davidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12981976646419481110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10151381.post-6392569871126805342008-06-18T02:38:00.000+01:002008-06-18T02:38:00.000+01:00I'm glad you had a happy, normal upbringing. Unfortunately I didn't at all. Things were always pretty dramatic and hectic, with really extreme events happen on occasion.<BR/><BR/>Fortunately, the period that I would really call "childhood," from 6 to 11, was pretty content. I read alot of comics and stayed in my own happy little world.Michaelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05198965930559700655noreply@blogger.com
