Setting up house
I'm making a quick appearance here as I am new to blogspot and am here to refer you to my other blog at Beryl at Gather.com until I can figure out what I'm doing. I arrived here because I am a guest blogger on Patry Francis' (author of The Liar's Diary) Simply Wait blogspot.

Hi Beryl, I just read your guest blogpost on Patry's blog and clicked over here to find out more - your post there is lovely. If possible, I'll leave a comment there as well (having computer connection problems myself).
Hey, Beryl. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. I can't wait to read your book.
Hi Beryl,
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I agree wholeheartedly with what you wrote re Ann Patchett and am so thrilled that she blurbed your book (which I will try to order from Amazon). I am almost through reading Run at the moment (my mum bought me the hardback knowing what a fan I am) and it is absolutely wonderful. I'll post a mini-review once I'm done. I will now have a read of your blog.
Hi Beeryl! I'm trying to figure this site out, and just might be getting there!
I thought I'd read and comment now and then--since I know writers like to be read! Besides, since you won't be at oblates for a while, this is a good way to keep up.
Our meeting with Sr. Edith on Bendictine values in the workplace was great. Next month is Cheryl's oblation.
