A child of the south, steeped in the mysterious aura that accompanies Spanish moss, mosquitoes and barbecue, Amelia has felt the urge to write ever since she was a little girl.

(Male protagonist and clueless female :-( ) Flipping it around, with a young woman of breeding who doesn't mind a little grease and steam.

We'll see how that works out.(less)

Finals

Grading 55 or so 11 question finals this weekend. The students who actually did the work do pretty well. The rest, ah well, how many should I fail?
