Angela has posted an absolutely amazing piece today, The Woman Who Corrupted Diddleyburg.

It is a very clever title, because it is a play on the Mark Twain classic, The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg. And Angela plays so well with Twain's plot. You really need to read the original version to understand just how excellent her story is. Click here to read Twain's version:

The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg

You will notice I said "Twain's version" rather than "original version." That's because I find Angela's story to be its own 'original' story. Although I love parody, that is not what Angela has done. Her story brings Twain's subject forward to make it relevant today not only for this group, but for any reader.
