“I grew up in southwestern Virginia. I was born in South Carolina, but only because my parents had a vacation cabin or something there on the beach. I was like a summer baby.

“Witch Baby wanted to ask Ping how to find her Jah-Love angel. She knew Raphael was not him, even though Raphael had the right eyes and smile and name. She knew how he looked--the angel in her dream--but she didn't know how to find him. Should she roller-skate through the streets in the evenings when the streetlights flicker on?

Was he waiting, dreaming of her in the same way she waited and dreamed?” KnowsWayShouldDreamEyeWantedAsksNamesWaitingKnow HowStreetsBabyAngelRainForestsShipsEveningBeachWitchCruiseSkatesFlickerJamaicaRaphaelPingCruise Ships Author:Francesca Lia Block
