Welcome to Litsy!

Excerpt from The Camomile: An Invention Not bad, you say, for a beginning? Perhaps not. But, Ruby, I feel that nair-rvous, as we say here, and, what is worse, a fraud. What if I have no gift for teaching? It is very funny to notice how im pressed, yet how skeptical Aunt Harry is. If she has read my professional card once, she has read it fifty times, but I'm sure she believes no more than I do that I shall really be paid money for my lessons.
