My dad and mom divorced when I was around ten, and I didn't live with him after that, though he was close by and we saw each other weekly.

It occurred to me then that my dad was kind of special; he's still one of my favorite writers.

I love whimsy. My mother was a word person, a real quipster. She was famous in the 1950s for being a contester in Utah: 25 words or less. My bicycle, our hi-fi... in 1959, she won $15,000 from Remington-Rand for writing about a shaver. She was a farm girl from South Dakota.
