We created this blog as a companion to <span style="font-style: italic;"><a href="http://www.88letters.blogspot.com/">Letters</a></span>, our novel-in-progress-on-a-blog. There are so many things related to <span style="font-style: italic;">Letters</span> that we wanted to post, but didn't feel the blog was the appropriate place. So we created a place--and here it is. If you are friends of ours, or if you like our little blog/novel, you may from time to time enjoy the little tidbits, stories, and fun extras that will appear here. We are also very excited to show our gratitude to our many friends and supporters in the blogosphere by displaying links to their most excellent and worthy blogs. Explanation over. Welcome to <span style="font-style: italic;">Letters Lore</span>.<br /><br />- Michelle &amp; Liz<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1147534016831801817-2870398275802321895?l=88letterslore.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>sunrabbitnoreply@blogger.com0
