Jul. 30th, 2015 06:54 amHome again! And just in time for a terrible heat wave. Temperatures here in the valley are in the hundreds (Fahrenheit). It was 106 yesterday. Today is only supposed to reach 103, which has everyone joking that we'll need to take along sweaters.
During the drive to Tahoe, with my daughter at the wheel, I was reading mail on my phone. I read out loud a very nice comment I'd just received for one of my stories, Hyperbole. She expressed some polite interest, which led to my giving her a little background on the story. To my surprise, she really wanted to hear the whole thing, so I spun an entire synopsis. And she really liked it, or at least my telling of it. However, she did disapprove of Hermione Granger winding up with anyone but Ron Weasley. She's a diehard canon fan, and in the end, can't understand why we'd pair Hermione with anyone else. We mutually agreed she shouldn't trouble herself with fanfiction at this point in life.
