Hi Sandrine, Cornelia, Morten, Anja, Anita, Eartha Kitt II and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
I'm Jens,
Anita and Eartha Kitt II, in case you sent the huge and hard apple to the chicken praising poet I can only say: Well done, dear friend.
I'm very impressed of your research. How did you find all these info? Congratulations.
Good luck with your Betty MacDonald Fan Club story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Heskett, Donald MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others.
It's a brilliant idea to ask our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant about their experiences of chickens.
Monica Sone's book Nisei Daughter is very well written. A very important book. I wished I could read some more books written by Monica Sone, but it's the only one she ever wrote.
I'd love to have some more info of Darsie Beck's book and artwork.
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Member and author Gwen Grant wrote a book about her experience of chickens. I'll order FOX FIRE soon.
This is very exciting. Who will be the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Member?
Who is the famous writer and artist and President of a world famous Society?
Let's talk about Mary Bard Jensen and her very kind and patient husband, Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen.
Some relatives of mine visited Seattle and met Dr. Clyde Jensen. It was many years after Mary Bard Jensen passed away. Clyde Reynolds Jensen valued Mary Bard's work very much and knew so many details. They had the same good marriage like Sydney and Darsie Bard. Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen's nickname was Jens. It's my surname. Funny!
Cornelia, listen to me, please. You wrote:
Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen answered my mother's millions of questions in a very friendly and detailed way. I'm not sure at all I would have done this because mother wanted to know everything. Mother is darling but can nerve sometimes. Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen shared very important info of Boulder, Butte, Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Carmel, Carmel Valley, Vashon Island and Firland Sanatorium.
It was the same with my relatives. They wrote everything down Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen told them. I'll share it on Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. I'll have to ask my relatives because I remember there was even a tape with Clyde Reynolds Jensen's recorded voice.
I adore Alison Bard Burnett's goldies in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews.
You can compare unique Alison Bard Burnett with her famous sister Betty MacDonald, although she never wrote a book of her own.
Thank you so much, dear Linde Lund. We can be very grateful that Linde Lund heard of Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews. Linde had the fascinating idea to share them with Betty MacDonald Fans from all over the world. Linde, you are great!
Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and Betty MacDonald interviews have fans in 26 countries. I bet there will be many more fans in the future.
Isn' t this amazing? Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett are born humorists. Both delight their fans from all over the world. I'd love to have a Wolfgang Hampel CD and DVD with his very funny poems and stories. What about a book? We adore Wolfgang Hampel's high humor and wit in Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his wonderful Betty MacDonald interviews.
Morten, I agree. We have to find somebody like Mike Gordon, Bill Gates or Dagobert Duck who might be interested in purchasing Betty MacDonald's filmed interview.
Did you already ask your cousin? I'd die to see Betty MacDonald's filmed interview in colour.
I wished I'd be wealthy and prrrrominent. I'd buy Betty MacDonald's filmed interview in a minute.
Nice weekend.
Jens

Betty MacDonald filmed document
I'm Morten,
Anita, I hope we can read your Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter story about owning chickens very soon.
My family and I like eggs and chickens but I have no experience of owning chickens.
Many greetings to Eartha Kitt II who is really very wise. You are very witty, dear Anita!
Did you really send this huge and very hard apple to Anja's chicken praising friend?
I know we'll enjoy your Betty MacDonald Fan Club Story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Eugene Heskett, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Perry Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others.
Sandrine, Anita, Anja and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans, when we listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald interviews we are laughing all the time. The same happens while reading Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography and his very funny poems and stories.
It's wonderful that there will be a new Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett CD and DVD. Alison Bard Burnett and Wolfgang Hampel share their golden laughter.
Anja, you mentioned one of your friends nearly fell off the chair while listening to them.
My aunt fell off the chair! It's not a joke. Auntie was ok but I agree laughter can be dangerous.
Who is our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory member? A famous writer and artist and President of a world famous Society?
We have to find somebody like Mike Gordon, Bill Gates or Dagobert Duck who might be interested in purchasing Betty MacDonald's filmed interview. It's such an important document and every Betty MacDonald Fan should see it. We need some wealthy and prrrrominent people to be successful. Let's be optimistic!
We'll make it!!!!!!!!! So sorry, I'm not Morten Harket. I'll ask my cousin Daniel who is very wealthy but also a miser. I hope he won't ever read this.
It's a very good idea to ask our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant about their experiences of chickens.
What a surprise!
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honory Member and author Gwen Grant even wrote a book about her experience of chickens. Thank you so much for sending this very interesting mail.
Yes, as it happens I do have some experience of chickens. When I was a girl, my father kept hens. And I actually wrote a book about keeping hens, FOX FIRE, and the different attitudes of two children to hens and foxes. We kept the hens at the bottom of the garden in a well protected, as we thought, hen run but one morning, we found them all dead. The foxes had got them. My Dad redoubled his efforts after this and the hen run eventually became so secure, it was all anyone could do to get in it to feed them!
The hens we had were a bit confrontational, I'm sorry to say, for when we went to get the eggs, we had to be careful as they would peck your hands. There were times though, when it was nice to go in and sometimes be allowed to stroke some feathers.
I'll draw a veil over the killing process when the hens were ready for the pot. I always made myself scarce at that point. However, my Mum taught me how to do everything from skinning and preparing a rabbit through gutting and cleaning a fish to plucking a chicken
and cleaning it ready for the pot. All I have to say to all of these activities is Yuk.
FOX FIRE - ISBN: 1-85213-337-6 - Orchard Books
Best wishes,
Gwen Grant
We can't wait to read Gwen Grant's book FOX FIRE.
Take care,
Morten

Betty MacDonald Interview
Hi, it's Anja,
Hello, dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
It was a wonderful day. We visited Prater in Vienna with our friends and it reminded us on Betty MacDonald's book Onions in the Stew.
You might think: Is Anja foolish? You can't compare Prater in Vienna with Vashon Island in state of Washington. Believe me, you can! Even here you see racoons. They are really very shameless when they are looking for food.
Can you remember? Betty MacDonald, her husband Donald Chauncey MacDonald and daughters Anne and Joan had their funny moments ( sometimes ) with racoons at Dolphin Point on Vashon Island.
Anita, it's so much fun reading your message about owning chickens.
We laughed tears when I printed out your story yesterday. Our family and friends were sitting in the garden. Two friends own even some chickens. One of them praised them in an almost lyrical way. Our friend was sitting under our big apple-tree. Suddenly a huge apple was falling down directly on the friend's head. He stopped praising chickens and complained about our very hard and dangerous apples. We laughed and said: It was Anita, who sent you this apple.
We enjoy you and your very wise cat Eartha Kitt II.
Anita, you said Eartha seemed to say you sounded like a prayer. I'd say more like a preacher, but a very witty one!
Good luck with your Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter story about owning chickens.
It'll be very interesting and funny to read your story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Eugene Heskett, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others.
Come on! Let's ask our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant.
I don't know anything about our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor member. A famous writer and artist and president of a world famous Society! Can you imagine Mike Gordon's comment? He liked wealthy and prrrrrominent people! Where are the Mike Gordons and Dagobert Ducks? Just send us a message, please. Betty MacDonald Fan Club needs this type of person to purchase Betty MacDonald's filmed treasure interview. We 'd die to see it. Do something, please.
Sandrine and Anita. I agree with your serious warnings. It's very dangerous indeed when you listen to beloved Betty MacDonald and sister Alison Bard Burnett in Wolfgang Hampel's interviews.
I listen to them often because they always make me laugh. A good friend of mine roared with laughter and nearly fell off the chair. Laughter is healthy but sometimes it can be also dangerous.
Take care,
Anja

Hello, dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
It was a wonderful day. We visited Prater in Vienna with our friends and it reminded us on Betty MacDonald's book Onions in the Stew.
You might think: Is Anja foolish? You can't compare Prater in Vienna with Vashon Island in state of Washington. Believe me, you can! Even here you see racoons. They are really very shameless when they are looking for food.
Can you remember? Betty MacDonald, her husband Donald Chauncey MacDonald and daughters Anne and Joan had their funny moments ( sometimes ) with racoons at Dolphin Point on Vashon Island.
Anita, it's so much fun reading your message about owning chickens.
We laughed tears when I printed out your story yesterday. Our family and friends were sitting in the garden. Two friends own even some chickens. One of them praised them in an almost lyrical way. Our friend was sitting under our big apple-tree. Suddenly a huge apple was falling down directly on the friend's head. He stopped praising chickens and complained about our very hard and dangerous apples. We laughed and said: It was Anita, who sent you this apple.
We enjoy you and your very wise cat Eartha Kitt II.
Anita, you said Eartha seemed to say you sounded like a prayer. I'd say more like a preacher, but a very witty one!
Good luck with your Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter story about owning chickens.
It'll be very interesting and funny to read your story about Betty MacDonald, Robert Eugene Heskett, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Sydney Cleveland Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea DeDe Goldsmith, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and others.
Come on! Let's ask our great Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant.
I don't know anything about our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor member. A famous writer and artist and president of a world famous Society! Can you imagine Mike Gordon's comment? He liked wealthy and prrrrrominent people! Where are the Mike Gordons and Dagobert Ducks? Just send us a message, please. Betty MacDonald Fan Club needs this type of person to purchase Betty MacDonald's filmed treasure interview. We 'd die to see it. Do something, please.
Sandrine and Anita. I agree with your serious warnings. It's very dangerous indeed when you listen to beloved Betty MacDonald and sister Alison Bard Burnett in Wolfgang Hampel's interviews.
I listen to them often because they always make me laugh. A good friend of mine roared with laughter and nearly fell off the chair. Laughter is healthy but sometimes it can be also dangerous.
Take care,
Anja

Betty MacDonald Sensation
I'm Anita,
This is a Betty MacDonald Sensation, watching Betty MacDonald in front of the cameras in this new interview.
I'm working on a story about Owning Chickens for Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter.
You will learn many thoughts for example of Betty MacDonald, Donald Chauncey MacDonald, Darsie Bard, Sydney Bard, Gammy, Mary Bard Jensen, Clyde Reynolds Jensen, Cleve Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Dorothea Goldsmith whose name in Betty MacDonald's books is Dede of course, Madge Baldwin, Don Woodfin, Mike Gordon, Ma and Pa Kettle, Nancy and Plum, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle and many other family members and friends.
Sandrine darling, you are right. A serious warning! Don't ever listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews in public places. I did it in a bus. I felt off my sit because I couldn't stop laughing about this crazy couple. Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett share their witty experiences with family and friends but also about owning chickens. Terribly funny!
This new Betty MacDonald CD and DVD influenced me to write a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter story about owning chickens. I agree with humor champion Alison Bard Burnett. She got it! When you feel blue you only have to listen to Wolfgang Hampel and Alison Bard Burnett. Don't do it in a childish way like I did. By the way I did hurt myself.
I don't agree with Geoff Taylor's description about owning chickens.
Hens make a soothing clucking noise?
Oh No!!!! They don't. I know it from practice.
They wake you up early in the morning. I'm a longsleeper. I hate their noise. It's just awful.
Everyone should have a dozen chickens?.
Everyone? What is the reason why? I never liked chickens.
They’re far more soothing to the jangled city psyche than colorful fish swimming in a tank on a bookshelf?
Oh dear, Geoff, stop it, please! This is kind of a very romantic feeling. I'm sure Betty MacDonald would hate it and I agree. A back to the country feeling.
I'm a city girl and love my wonderful cat named Eartha Kit, who is as beautiful as Eartha, the singer. Wild Eartha is a city girl too and of course we celebrated World Cat Day together.
Chickens give you eggs on your breakfast plate that are better and fresher than Bill Gates eats, unless he also keeps chickens?
Eartha and I don't need eggs, in fact we don't like them. I can't imagine Bill Gates keeps chickens. If so I'd be very disappointed because I adore his intelligence.
So you know how I feel about Geoff Taylor's thoughts.
I'd like to know what our very bright and charming Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members, authors and artists Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant think about owning chickens. I'm really very curious. I bet they don't like them.
Chickens remain what they are. Stupid!
The world don't need their stupidity. We need more intelligence, tolerance and understanding. That's what we need.
Eartha looks at me and seems to say: Anita, dull chick you sound like a prayer today. You still have to learn a lot!
Isn't Eartha very wise? She is so much more intelligent than I am.
Have a nice day, dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans!

Betty MacDonald's voice and laugh
Bonjour, I'm Sandrine
Thank you so much for the wonderful Betty MacDonald Fan Club News.
It'll be kind of a miracle to see Betty MacDonald in front of cameras for the first time.
It'll be such a great moment for us to see Betty MacDonald and listen to her very warm and feminine voice and unique laughter. I don't want to talk only about Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard, but also about the other family members especially Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's unforgettable sister Alison Bard Burnett.
Alison Bard Burnett shares very witty experiences with her family, friends and Mike Gordon. Be careful, please. Don't listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews in public places like I did. I was sitting in a train and had to laugh so hard all the time. People gave me very strange looks. Alison Bard Burnett is a champion in humor like her sisters Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard. She deserves world wide fame because of this unique ability to make us laugh.
I adore Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating Betty MacDonald Interviews and biographical books The Kettles' Million Dollar Egg, The Egg and Betty, The Tragic End of Robert Eugene Heskett, Betty MacDonald and Mike Gordon, Betty MacDonald in Butte, Chimacum, Seattle and Carmel, Betty MacDonald's illness published by BMC 2009/2010.
My aunt knows one of Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's close friends. My story about this will be published in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter September 2010 including very interesting photos.
Cornelia, who is next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member? I'm very curious but have no idea.
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant are outstanding and I adore their books very much.
I'll never forget our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Events in Oslo and Stockholm. I hope there will be another one soon.
Yours,
Sandrine

Thank you so much for the wonderful Betty MacDonald Fan Club News.
It'll be kind of a miracle to see Betty MacDonald in front of cameras for the first time.
It'll be such a great moment for us to see Betty MacDonald and listen to her very warm and feminine voice and unique laughter. I don't want to talk only about Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard, but also about the other family members especially Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's unforgettable sister Alison Bard Burnett.
Alison Bard Burnett shares very witty experiences with her family, friends and Mike Gordon. Be careful, please. Don't listen to Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews in public places like I did. I was sitting in a train and had to laugh so hard all the time. People gave me very strange looks. Alison Bard Burnett is a champion in humor like her sisters Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard. She deserves world wide fame because of this unique ability to make us laugh.
I adore Wolfgang Hampel's fascinating Betty MacDonald Interviews and biographical books The Kettles' Million Dollar Egg, The Egg and Betty, The Tragic End of Robert Eugene Heskett, Betty MacDonald and Mike Gordon, Betty MacDonald in Butte, Chimacum, Seattle and Carmel, Betty MacDonald's illness published by BMC 2009/2010.
My aunt knows one of Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's close friends. My story about this will be published in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter September 2010 including very interesting photos.
Cornelia, who is next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member? I'm very curious but have no idea.
Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant are outstanding and I adore their books very much.
I'll never forget our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Events in Oslo and Stockholm. I hope there will be another one soon.
Yours,
Sandrine

Betty MacDonald's film biography
Hello this is Dagmar,
Great Betty MacDonald Fan Club news!
You can order our new Betty MacDonald and Alison Bard Burnett CD and DVD!
DVD and CD are different. You can see Betty MacDonald, her sister Alison Bard Burnett and other family members and friends in front of the camera for the first time!
We can offer you new wonderful Betty MacDonald Fan Club Items and a new Betty MacDonald and Alison Bard Burnett CD and DVD published by Betty MacDonald Fan Club 2010. More exciting news about Betty MacDonald's filmed interview will come soon.
Anne Elizabeth Campbell Bard was born March 26, 1907 in Boulder, Colorado, the second child of Sydney and Darsie Bard. Betsy and her three sisters and brother had an adventurous, somewhat unconventional childhood owing to the strong and creative personalities of their parents and Darsie's mother, "Gammy," and the many lessons in independence they survived gracefully. ( see story Betty and Gammy written by Wolfgang Hampel published by Betty MacDonald Fan Club 2009/2010 and Interviews with Betty MacDonald and her sister Alison Bard published on CD/DVD Betty MacDonald Fan Club 2009/2010. The interviews on CD and DVD are different ones )
When Betsy was 12 her father died of pneumonia, but the family's strong relationships and optimism remained intact through this sorrow and the ensuing financial trials.
Betsy (who later preferred the nickname Betty) said that for the Bard children, there were really only two household rules: "We were expected to be polite and to tell the truth, no matter how appalling. "Apart from that, the Bard children did as they pleased and went forth into the world with well-defined personalities, acutely-developed senses of humor and adventure, and a remarkable zest for life.
Betty married at 20 and went to live on a chicken ranch in the Olympic mountains. Her experiences there are chronicled in her first book, The Egg and I . ( see books The Kettles' Million Dollar Egg, The Egg and Betty, The Tragic end of Robert Eugene Heskett by Wolfgang Hampel published by BMC 2009)
Life in such isolation and hardship palled after 4 years and she returned with her two small daughters to her Seattle family just as the Depression hit. The amazing stories of their survival and triumph are related in Anybody Can Do Anything. Betty and her family had a wonderful friend who supported them during this very difficult time.
( see Betty and Mike by Wolfgang Hampel published by BMC 2009 and Wolfgang Hampel's interview with Alison Bard published by BMC 2009/2010)
Alison Bard tells some delightful treasure stories about this wonderful friend.
But Betty's career as a businesswoman was cut short when she contracted pulmonary tuberculosis and entered Firlands, an endowed sanitorium north of Seattle. Lying flat on one's back for 8 1/2 months doesn't seem the stuff of which humor can be made, but Betty did indeed spin gold out of straw, in The Plague and I.
( see Betty MacDonald's illness written by Wolfgang Hampel and published 2009 by BMC and comments of Betty MacDonald's family and friends incl. Betty MacDonald's wonderful friend Kimi )
After her recovery, Betty married Donald MacDonald and they moved their family to Vashon Island, leading an idyllic and interesting existence as portrayed in Onions in the Stew. While on Vashon Betty also wrote her works for children: the Mrs. Piggle Wiggle series and Nancy and Plum.
Betty and her husband bought a ranch near Carmel, but illness forced her to move back to Seattle. She died of cancer at the age of 50 on February 7, 1958. ( see Betty MacDonald's illness by Wolfgang Hampel, published by BMC 2009 and Wolfgang Hampel's interview with Alison Bard, published by BMC 2009/2010 )
Why is Betty's writing so beloved among so many people all over the world? The first and most obvious reason is that it's hilarious - sharp, sometimes irreverent. vivid and unexpected. Betty manages to find humor everywhere: on the early morning streetcar, in a hospital ward, in a home with two cranky adolescents, in job situations from farm work to secretarial duties. To read Betty's writing is to laugh -- often out loud, in public places, whether you want to or not. She has a terrific eye for the absurd and can paint a striking and side-splitting word picture in a few succinct strokes.
But Betty fans also love her optimism, her strength, her intense love for her family, her times of self-doubt, and the zest with which she approaches all of life and relishes simple pleasures.( see many comments of Betty MacDonald Fans in books, stories and interviews with Betty MacDonald's family and friends published by BMC 2009/2010 )
Betty's indomitable sister Mary Bard, whom we encounter in all four books but meet most vividly in Anybody Can Do Anything, also went on to write (her first book is dedicated to Betty, "Who Egged Me On"). Mary's books, The Doctor Wears Three Faces, Forty-Odd, Just Be Yourself, and the children's series Best Friends, are also much beloved by Betty fans who find themselves quickly becoming Mary fans as well. ( see Wolfgang Hampel's interviews with Alison Bard. She tells the most interesting stories about Mary, Betty and the Bard family. )
The CD and DVD interviews are different ones.

Betty MacDonald Letter
It's Carla,
Hi Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
I'll contribute something to Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Letter project.
Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen was really very kind and patient. I met some of his relatives and they said that he was very interested in Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard Jensen's work and life of the Bard family.
Betty MacDonald's son-in-law and Joan MacDonald Keil's husband Jerry Keil acted the same way. I'm going to share some of Joan MacDonald Keil's and Jerry Keil's letters. The letters are very funny and interesting. You'll enjoy them very much.
Cornelia, we can be very fortunate to have these excellent Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members Monica Sone, Darsie Beck and Gwen Grant.
Next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour member is a famous writer and artist and President of a world famous Society? I saw a list of possible candidates in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter. I'm very surprised and impressed. As I'm not Miss Marple II I'm not successful at all in finding this personality.
Cornelia, you can't do things like this. You have to know I'm very impatient and curious. You wrote that Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard would have been crazy about our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour member because you can read this in their books. What are you talking about? I'd need a little help.
I like cats and hate chickens. One of our relatives had a farm and they had chickens!
If you ask me, chickens are very stupid creatures and Betty MacDonald knew them very well.
Some years ago my husband like Betty MacDonald's first husband Robert Eugene Heskett wanted to own a farm but I refused. Daniel wasn't interested in chickens. He liked cows. I said: If this happens we'll have a divorce. We are still married. Daniel is teacher.
I'm convinced Betty MacDonald's and Mary Bard's mother Sydney Bard would criticize my behaviour very much but times haves changed. I love Daniel very much but don't follow him everywhere.
I agree with Betty MacDonald's wonderful sister Alison Bard Burnett, who is very openminded about marriages and divorces in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews.
My family and friends adore Wolfgang Hampel's interviews and his Betty MacDonald and Ma and Pa Kettle biography. More Wolfgang Hampel Interviews should be published. We are huge fans of Wolfgang Hampel satirical poems and stories. Very funny and sharp, indeed.
I notice every time I listen to the Betty MacDonald CD how very different Betty MacDonald's and Alison Bard Burnett's voices are. Betty MacDonald has a rather high voice and she speaks very, very quickly. Nevertheless I love Betty MacDonald's and Alison Bard Burnett's voices and golden laughter.
Nice weekend, Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans and Cornelia!
Yours,
Carla

Betty MacDonald, Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen
I'm Cornelia,
Dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans, I'd like to tell you about my contribution to the Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard Letter Project.
My mother was a huge Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard fan. She wrote a letter with many questions to Mary Bard Jensen's husband, Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen.
I'm convinced Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen was the world's most patient and kind doctor and husband, father and friend. Where are these guys today? Mary Bard Jensen was very happy indeed to find such a very rare exemplar.
Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen answered my mother's millions of questions in a very friendly and detailed way. I'm not sure at all I would have done this because mother wanted to know so many details. Mother is darling but can nerve at times. My God! This poor man! Mother asked a hole in Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen's stomach. Mother wrote back and there are three letters with so many, many information about Mary Bard Jensen, Betty MacDonald, Anne, Joan, Donald MacDonald, Dorothea Goldsmith, Alison Bard Burnett, Cleve Bard, Mary Alice Bard, Madge Baldwin, Darsie Bard and Sydney Bard. Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen shares very important info about life in Seattle, Laurelhurst, Chimacum, Carmel, Vashon Island and Firland Sanatorium. I know you will enjoy this very important documents.
I adore Alison Bard Burnett's golden memories of Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen in Wolfgang Hampel's Betty MacDonald Interviews. Everybody loved Dr. Clyde Reynolds Jensen and after reading his letters I know the reason why.
One of my favourite writers is our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member Monica Sone, author of Nisei Daughter and Betty MacDonald's friend Kimi in The Plague and I.
Stella, it was World Cat Day. My sisters and I have many cats and they got their World Cat Day gifts. Our children love them. I'm not sure what our husbands think about them. I guess they like dogs, but we are crazy about cats. We know Betty MacDonald owned cats but what about Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle?
She has a cat named Lightfoot and Wag, her dog. Nancy and Plum play with a black mother cat and her three kittens in the barn on Christmas Day. Even Ma and Pa Kettle own a cat.
Our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member loves cats. You can see this in artwork and books. A famous writer and artist and President of a world famous Society.
Our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members are outstanding.
Betty MacDonald loved our Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Members, her fascinating nephew, artist and writer Darsie Beck and her wonderful friend, author Monica Sone. Betty MacDonald and Mary Bard would have been crazy about author Gwen Grant and our next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member because you can read this in their books.
Are you curious now? I hope so very much.
Dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans, do you know who is the next Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour Member? If so send a message to Francine, please. You can find her contact info in Betty MacDonald Fan Club Newsletter Page 1.
If you are right you can win one of the future Betty MacDonald Fan Club Items.
Deadline is end of August.

Betty MacDonald, Gwen Grant
This is Ina,
We received this mail from our Betty MacDonald Fan Club honour member Gwen Grant, beloved author and Betty MacDonald Fan.
I agree we have the most interesting and fascinating Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honour members.
Welcome to Betty MacDonald Fan Club, dearest Gwen Grant.
I'm sure Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans from all over the world will enjoy reading your wonderful books.
Ina
Dear Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans,
I've just taken down from my bookshelves the four books of Betty's that I have and they've been read so much, the covers of THE EGG AND I and ONIONS IN THE STEW are a a bit battered! I was interested in the dates they were published and thought others might be interested, as well.
THE EGG AND I - 1955 - llth impression
THE PLAGUE AND I - 1949
ANYBODY CAN DO ANYTHING - 1951
ONIONS IN THE STEW - Not dated
and 'WHO, ME?' 1960 - a compilation of Betty's work and this has a small photograph of Betty on the cover of the book itself and inside there is a photograph of Betty and two of her grandchildren.
Three of them are Book Club books and they look nothing from the outside - give no idea of the brilliant world within. Opening one of Betty's books is like finding treasure. The 1949 and 1951 books I bought at a Jumble Sale when I was about 17 and had read THE EGG AND I. I felt so fortunate to find them and carried them home as tenderly as if they were eggs! I think they were printed on wartime paper because the paper isn't spectacular. I imagine, though, that there are much older books than these around and just as much loved as mine.
Another fan of Betty's asked recently how old I was when I first read Betty's books - I think I was about 16. I read THE EGG AND I first because from the moment I read that first paragraph, I was hooked. I loved reading about people's lives and that opening paragraph is so instantly appealing.
My own books were much influenced by Betty, especially KNOCK AND WAIT, which is the story of my year at an Open Air School, which was a bit like a Sanatorium but wasn't.
PRIVATE-KEEP OUT is the first in my trilogy dealing with my childhood. There are fictional elements to this book but the basis is true.
My family, for instance, at that time was my three brothers but I had a sister who died. All the same, I thought of her as still being my family, so I put her in my book as Lucy. I have another sister younger than me - so the heroine had two sisters, but, I have to say, all the nice parts of Rose are my youngest sister's - all the other bits are me! The town I lived in is there, the street I lived in, the feelings I had, many of the things that happened.
KNOCK AND WAIT - When I first wrote this book, it wasn't at all funny, and I wasn't happy with it. It sounded too sad and too dark, so, remembering THE PLAGUE AND I and Betty and Kimi's response to their situation, I rewrote KNOCK AND WAIT and this time I was happy with it. It was funny and yet it showed the truth of my year in that hsopital school. Betty walks a tightrope with THE PLAGUE AND I because to write about something so life changing as a serious illness and yet keep it light but without minimising the impact it has on your life or belittling the experience, because, of course, there are others who suffer as well, is tremendously difficult. Betty had that unique ability and I think that ability came from the generosity of her nature.
ONE WAY ONLY - there are fictional elements in this book but still mixed with many elements of truth.
I have written other children's books about subjects that have been important to me and these will eventually appear on my website which is still being built. I wish I could say I was building it but it's my husband, Ian, (a Scot) who is actually doing the work. When my is finished, all my books will be on it and more of my poems.
I have written four picture books - LITTLE BLUE CAR, which is about a new little car learning how he works - just like all small children. This was a story I used to tell my grandchildren. Their father had a little blue car so I just brought the car to life - helped by the children's fondness for it.
JONPANDA - about a Panda. I have that Panda still. I had him when I was a little girl and now he's so old and battered, he lives in tissue paper in a paper bag in the cupboard. JONPANDA comes to life for his friend, Mamie, who has rescued him from a wretched life at the fairground and they share a challenging experience together.
MATTHEW AND HIS MAGIC KITE - a story of a little boy's adventure on a kite that turns out to be magic. He goes to the North Pole on the kite because I always loved the idea of the North Pole, and has an adventure with a bear. Now this bear was one that used to be in Dundee, Scotland, museum and we lived there for a year. I used to take my sons to look at it but my imagination was captured by this bear and I looked at it as much as the boys. I once stepped over the rail that said 'KEEP OUT' and touched its fur and it was hard and spiky. Poor bear.
RACE DAY- this is a story about all kinds of vehicles competing in a race - but it's also about Littel Red Bubble car being kind to animals and to the other vehicles in the race. I guess I just wanted to highlight how so very often kindess and competitiveness go hand in hand.
At the moment, I'm working on a book called THE LAST COAL BARGE. I live in a village that used to have a coal mine at its heart. That's gone now but in its place there is a marina. However, there is a history in the old pit area and Danny meets part of it when he meets the mysterious Jarred Turner, his pony, Boxer and his pet blackbird, Casey. It tells of the fate of the last coal barge lying in the deep water of the pit.
PRIVATE-KEEP OUT can be ordered from Amazon but the other books have to be sought out. I hope many of you will read my stories and enjoy them.
Love, Gwen Grant.
