What The Dickens?


You know we all have our little needs when writing. Something to eat or silence or something else of the like. But Charles Dickens was original. He could not write unless he was facing north.

    Maybe that is my problem... I need to be facing North. I write like a hick.

    I think what this means is that he turned his back on "grits" and couldn't face them anymore.

    But I love and cherish everyone of his books.

    Not many people could write like him (we love love love Dickens). Facing only north did him well. :)
