Do You Believe In Fairies?

As you may have guessed from some of my previous blogs, I used to think anyone who believed in fairies was weird.  Although I have no physical proof of their existence, I am now confident that they are real.  Along with Angela, the character in my books, Getting Used To Weird and We Are One, I have become one of those weird people.
