Yesterday, on St. Patrick’s Day, I received the book “The Witch’s Pig,” which is an old Cornish folktale (not a fairytale). I ordered it because the main dream that inspires my Eadie fairytale takes place in Cornwall. And two other dreams I added to my story include magical Black Sows. It is a lovely book, well written. The illustrations are fun. I like that the witch’s cousin Tom is a main character. My cousin Tom often appears in my dreams.

I am surprised that a second story is brewing for me, the Black Wolf dream I had the first night I stayed in Glastonbury, England (near Cornwall, next to Devon). In that dream, I crawl into a water drain to escape the wolf. In Calhoun’s piggy folktale, the sow gets stuck in a water drain, and rambles along bogs and moors. I include moors in my tale, of course. And Calhoun’s Witch Betty lives in a thatched-roof cottage, just like Eadie, my Witch/Faerie Queen.

I am working on the second draft of my story today. It is going well, but I just did some web research to see if the name Edie shows up in any fairy tales. The name Edie appears in my dreams, so I did not make it up. But I did find an English children’s book from 2009 about green fairies and a character called Edie (the garden fairy). Maybe I need to change her name in my story. Not sure. I could change it to the Scottish spelling “Eadie.” I like that because I changed a character’s name from Brigid (Bridgette) to the old Irish spelling “Brigit.” Avery is another version of Edie and it means “ruler of the elves.”

On Friday my friend Nicki (who received her law degree from William Mitchell) created a synchronicity related to “Fragment: Observing A Young Woman’s Hard Work.” In that dream, a young woman is pulling up multiple brain images, maybe MRIs or PET scans. She points out one in particular and says, “This brain shape is about high intelligence.” I confirm, “That is exactly the shape of my brain.” 

Nicki talked about the high scores I got in the old PSAT/NMSQT test. “Genius. You would have been accepted at Harvard,” she said. Even though I haven’t felt that way for a long time, it was sweet to hear her say that.
