    Mark Twain’s comment on Jane Austen… Oh my gosh… that did make me laugh right out loud. Too funny. I’ve seen nothing around the web this week but stuff for school. Doubt anyone is interested in online lesson planning?

    And I love the tit-for-tat between Faulkner and Hemingway. The comment from Twain about Austen is hilarious.
