I do like a little romance... just a sniff, as I call it, of the rocks and valleys. Of course, bread-and-cheese is the real thing. The rocks and valleys are no good at all, if you haven't got that.

Kids can sniff out an adult agenda from an early age. I'm writing for entertainment, not to impress literary judges.
Kids can sniff out a moral. They can feel the heavy hand of an adult.
