2.2.10

You may have heard that last week JD Salinger passed away. One of our favourite writers here at the Rummey Bears. PB pointed out yesterday he was reading one of his books at the time. Indeed, he was.

I read this morning that someone else very talented also passed away last week. Edie Harper, the wife of one of my favourite illustrators, the late Charley Harper. To be honest, I didn't realise that his wife was also an artist. I feel a little bit sad that this is how I found out.

  1. J.D Salinger has always been so influential in my writing and I love teaching The Catcher in the Rye to my Literature class. He was extraordinary..

    I hope that somewhere up there, there is a cafe filled with all of these fabulous creators, sitting around a table sharing stories and illustrations and watching the world go by..
