This is from Hazel's school journal, and the red writing is from her teacher. Funnily enough, I had someone ask me recently if I could be any person in history who I would be, and my immediate answer was, "I just want to be myself." She is a bit like me, after all. :-)
Just got back from a dreamlike week at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. This is the building were my workshop took place, mainly, including a large deck (non-visible) to the left. It is truely a magical place among the spruce trees, the coastal mist and wonderful people.

More information about ballpoint pens:
A ballpoint pen is a writing instrument with an internal ink reservoir and a sphere for a point. The internal chamber is filled with a viscous ink that is dispensed at its tip during use by the rolling action of a small sphere. The sphere, usually from 0.5mm to 1.2 mm in diameter, may be made of brass, steel, tungsten carbide, or any durable, hard (nondeformable) material.
There are two basic types of ball point pens: disposable and refillable.
Disposable pens are chiefly made of plastic throughout and discarded when the ink is consumed; refillable pens are metal and some plastic and tend to be much higher in price. The refill replaces the entire internal ink reservoir and ball point unit rather than actually refilling it with ink, as it takes special high-speed centrifugation to properly fill a ball point reservoir with the viscous ink. The simplest types of ball point pens have a cap to cover the tip when the pen is not in use, while others have a mechanism for retracting the tip. This mechanism is usually controlled by a button at the top and powered by a spring within the pen body, but other possibilities include a pair of buttons, a screw, or a slide.
Rollerball pens combine the ballpoint design with the use of liquid ink and flow systems from fountain pens; Space Pens, developed by Fisher in the United States, combine a more than normally viscous ballpoint pen ink with a gas-pressured piston which forces the ink toward the point. This design allows the pen to write even upside down or in zero gravity environments. A graphite pencil can also be used in this way but produces graphite dust, requires sharpening, and is erasable, making it undesirable or unsuitable for use in some situations.
many thanks to les brumes for the texture

Thanks Robin for your poetry!!
Shadows reflection would liken her thought
as Bronte writing and a storyline sought
the plot then taken from the moments of her life
and an atmosphere created you could cut with a knife
the first line is the attention till the end must then hold
as pen forms the drama and the plot will unfold
romance and intrigue will wonder your mind
an outcome of hurt or happiness will find
we try to then to think ahead of the game
but to leave us unsure would be then her aim
all this by a candle and imagination the skill
and look forward to the next book we surely then will
