1. An old picture hauled up for talk like a pirate day

skunkbeard
Back in June, after supper, Cap’n Skunkbeard (my 4 year old son) ordered me out into the freezing cold of the garden to play at pirates. As Sea Salt Sally I persuaded him that I needed to sort out all the messy green ‘ropes’ on the sides of the ship so that we were prepared for any battles – so that got a bit of weeding done. Then I convinced him that Cap’n Skunkbeard would need a portrait so that his enemies could see what a fierce pirate he is, so he allowed me to retire from deck duties to carry out my other duties as the ship’s artist.

4. Why I'm suited to writing for Children #2

Reason #2

I talk like a pirate on Talk Like a Pirate Day.

Aarrr, matey!

'Tis true, 'tis true. September 19 every year'll find me droppin' vowels and consonants, "Aaarrr-ing" away, and usin' words like "ye", "me hearties", and "landlubbers" ---which I have to admit is just a plain fun word t' say at any time. . . go ahead an' try 't.

And one simply canna talk like a pirate without hunchin' over and makin' piratey facial expressions, so it's a fun day, all around.

"Silly" close to the surface? You betcha. Another reason I'm suited to writing for children.

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!
