    Thanks muchly! I had a blast writing it. I love how stories just sort of tug themselves out of the pictures---if you let them. I wish I had known my grandparents.

    -Fog

    p.s. Oops, that was a rather depressing note to end my comment on. But I've always been sad that my grandparents lived so far away and that I hardly knew them. For a minute there I could be the little boy in my story.

    Oh, wow! Thanks everyone. And thank you to the administration for featured this. I very much appreciate it. ( :

    kairos: I'm not at all a fan of how the elderly are treated in our society right now: Put away in retirement homes and treated as if they are useless. Not good, not good at all. I say we should change it before our turn comes to be old.

    047Mister3: Thanks. If your grandfather is still alive, I'd encourage you to pick up a phone and tell him that you appreciate him, or send him a note in the mail. ( :

    @bangbangtobambam You know, you're probably right. I was thinking that, too. I think if I do some serious editing, I'll chop a bit of it out. It does drag just a tiny.

    Thanks, Sweetnsour. Glad you can be with your grandfather; sounds fun!

  • likeyoupony
    likeyoupony says:
    Just so you know in the middle of your story you are kind of being mean and saying like bad things about your grandpa.:( So what I'm trying to say is that if your grandpa ever would take out this book that he would be very sad in the middle of the story. P.S This makes me sad because my great grandpa died.
    Posted 22 months ago (Permalink)
  • FogCat
    FogCat says:
    @likeyoupony I'm very sorry to hear that your great grandfather died. Both my grandfathers died, so I know a bit what it is like.

    As for the story saying mean things, I think you must be mistaken, because the narrator is only saying nice things about his grandfather. I'm not sure exactly where you've gotten tripped up, but you'll notice that at one part he pretends "to be a yuc--, smelly old man" but that doesn't mean he is.

    @gmcgarrity: Thank you. I'm glad you like this storybird. I'm afraid I can't make another version because the artist has taken down the pictures of the little boy. Besides, it would probably be confusing for everyone if there were two versions of the same story. Also, if you think about it, the average length of an ordinary picture book is 32 pages, and this is only 23 pages, so it's really not all that long. Okidoki?

    @saraloubob: Thanks!

    FogCat, you have to be the best writer on here. I love your books! I find it a little challenging to write a story from the pictures, but when I get an idea from one, it becomes something I would have never thought of otherwise! Your story, Tiny Enough to Fit on a Cupcake, is my favorite book ever!
