The Marvelous Mad Madam M.

H and I have a house guest coming to stay with us for awhile. She's one of our dearest friends. So for a bit the house will be occupied during the day. I just hope some king in training doesn't wonder by as she is an incarnation of her namesake. ;) Like in the stories by T.H. White she is a force unto herself, one with a past that haunts her and one that finds amusement and joy in unlikely places. But the thing she has most in common is that... Both our house guest and the character are highly magical tricksters.

So it should be interesting, if not fun ;)

But I still feel sorry for poor young Arthur. LOL.

Really interesting quotes. I'll have to work some of them into my stories or at least paraphrases.
