Thank you

Thank you Written by Barb JA (9/15/2009 8:01 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Slippery Jane, penned by Ivonne

Thanks Ivonne,

That was a really interesting article, and now I'll have to pay attention even more to see when she slips into the free indirect speech.

It's interesting that we have slipped into Willoughby's mind a bit, but I don't think that we have into Edward or Col. Brandons.

The GR is really enlightening, and has helped me pay more close attention to the details, than I normally have.
