Today September 13th is Roald Dahl's Day since it would have been Roal Dahl's 97th Birthday!
"Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." This is one of my favorite Dahl's Quotes. I really like his writing style widely known by his short stories for children with unexpected endings and touches of macabre, unsentimental and darkly comic moods. My favorites are Matilda, The Witches and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. His works are usually told by the point of view of a child, villains who mistreates children and the good adult who come in his rescue, but also told under an inventive and playful use of the language, a key element to his writing. He would invent new words by scribbling down his words before swapping letters around, children loves that words although it were meaningless because they often sound like a word they know, and he loved using onomatopoeia. For example, you know that something lickswishy and delumptious is good to eat, whereas something uckyslush or rotsome is not definitely not! He knowed wich sounds children loves to say!
Roald was a a great believer in the importance of reading.
You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:
It should be which instead of wich.Thank you! Since my native language is spanish I'm glad to have just a minor misspelling ;)
May I suggest you find someone here with a high reputation (the number in (XX) after their name) and make sure that they answer the comments left by others on their posts. Some people just post and don't interact with commenters. If you leave a comment they like they will give you an upvote and a little money. If they really like what you write they will visit your blog and upvote your posts. They may even resteem your post to their followers. Don't waste time with people who have high reputations, but are stingy with upvotes. A high reputation would be >70. Take care, ma'am! Chuck
Thanks Sir, I'll do that!
I've sent a few people your way who I would consider patriots of America who appreciate the importance of freedom. Most of us were in the military so we know what the absence of freedom is like.
Thanks! It means I will have to start uploading serious contents instead of those nonsenses I've been posting ihih..
Thank you so much!
