I've always liked the name
Anastasia, since I read
Lois Lowry's books about
Anastasia Krupnik when I was a child. I even wrote my own books about a girl called
Anastasia.
Sadly, someone spoiled the name a little for me by saying it sounds like "metastasis"...
I pronounce it a-na-STAH-see-a.
Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?
