Echo and Narcissus by John William Waterhouse, 1903, is the story of a man in love with himself and where the woman infatuated with him can repeat only the last three words he says. Oddly, that's what is happening today in America with all those women who drank the Kool-Aid.

I love a beautiful piebald horse and often include one in my stories. This is an 1877 watercolor painting of a piebald horse by Isabella Hunter, Scottish Borders.

“When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness…”
