Bill, just lovely. And yes, the phrase "a writer's writer". Why would a writer need a writer if a writer were a writer the calibre of MG? Just a little laugh--I searched and searched but could not find my favourite New Yorker cartoon of yonks ago. A couple walks by a man on a street wearing a helmet and visor, wielding a torch. The woman says to the man "He's an oxyacetylene welder's oxyacetylene welder". Thank you for the rightful celebration of Mavis. xo S

Made me laugh, Bill, the trials of Big City life. Educational too, your column; had to google “larping”. And, keep plumping for Mavis!
