I just graduated (or took part in the days long ceremonies) and yesterday, the night drive home was so stormy and long I expected a fight for the Fairy Flag at the end of it  ;)  I pray that I now have enough free time to take the feedback I have been given and make something of it. Thank you for the advice!

Wrong fandom, I know, but I have to share this.
While discussing writing brogue, the Scots edition of Harry Potter came to light. I had to get it.
First page, third chapter
"He wis a muckle, beefy-boukit man wi a stumpie wee craigie, although he did hae a gey muckle mowser. Mrs Dursley wis a skinnymalinkie, blond-heidit wummin whase craigie wis jist aboot twice as lang as ither fowk's, which wis awfie haundy as she spent sae muckle time keekin ower gairden fences, nebbin at the neebors."

That is a good laugh that.  Can not wait to read the rest.

P.S. my spell check program is freaking out.  ;D
May your horses have wings and fly!

ROFL!  I'd want the Audible version of that....   ;)  ;D
