  1. A number of my friends have now placed orders to your journal! After I sent them a copy of the cover. My great aunt Myna was F Scott Fitzgerald’s typist in Asheville NC. When he called she brewed him coffee, typed his words, and then he drank booze, and when he passed out at the table, she packed up her typewriter and quietly left his house. At this time Zelda was in a mental facility… At least that’s how my mom told the story and now mom is dead.
