People expect me to have a southern accent, but I really don't. My dad was raised in Phoenix and my mom was an army brat, so none of us has Southern accents (though I can have a bit of twang when pronouncing certain words). Apparently, it's my tone. I have a soothing voice but a hearty laugh. (I've always wished I had more of an accent like so many of my Tallahassee friends.) Anyhoo, I couldn't be more pleased that you enjoyed my latest story! Many thanks for reading/responding!
