"My mother's grandfather was a Welsh bard, which
seemed important, although the only thing my mother had to support this
claim was a book of sermons written by him, in Welsh. A maternal great-great-grandfather
was supposed to have been cuckolded by some King of England while he was
attending at a royal birth in the capacity of physician. My father read
epic poetry to me before I knew how to read for myself, and talked about
his sister who regaled their large family with her serialized tales. In
short, it was plain to me from an early age that stories were the stuff
of life, and I was heir to them." -- lynda
