For All You Flannery O'Connor Fans Out There...

... which, upon reflection, may constitute the vast majority of people who read my blog. Dad, Clay, Eleanor... Rachel? Do you like Flannery O'Connor? Oh wait, I forgot, she doesn't read my blog... dangit!

(A sentence using the 10 story titles from her collection, A Good Man Is Hard To Find And Other Stories)

"Even though A GOOD MAN IS HARD TO FIND, if by A STROKE OF GOOD FORTUNE you discover A CIRCLE IN THE FIRE or have A LATE ENCOUNTER WITH THE ENEMY, then THE LIFE YOU SAVE MAY BE YOUR OWN, and GOOD COUNTRY PEOPLE like THE ARTIFICIAL NIGGER and THE DISPLACED PERSON may lead you to A TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST by THE RIVER."

Hahahaha. That was excellent.
And, yes, I am highly fond of Flannery O'Connor.

Look! I read your blog! And I am terribly sorry for not reading much of it before. I do remember seeing the Magnetic Poetry, though. So I did read it occasionally.

Here's to two years of July 4th in a row!
Cheers,
Rachel

AJ,
Glad to hear you now consider yourself a fan of F. O'C. What you did with the titles was very clever but I do have a question - do you have too much free time on your hands?
