Leora Skulkin-Smith's essay about Grace Paley

The “Legacy” of Grace Paley

When I first read this wonderful critical text, I thought: this writer would prefer that my blog and even DeeDee's not exist.

I nonetheless wanted to save it, to read again & to share.

Recently thanks to Facebook, I have begun to become friends with Leora. . .

It's a small world. Sometimes I misread people in a big way. Seems to happen despite demographic commonalities !

Leora, thank you for this excellent piece. I am going to share it with some of my English Teacher Friends.

Always maintain a positive image of yourself!

Thank you, faithful commentator !

I recognized that blogs have audiences and some have little use for them, so my statement wasn't intended to be completely self-disparaging as much as blog-disparaging.

I like that last expression, blog-disparaging.
