Dying Sunshine

Once upon a sunny day in England I was wandering in Hyde Park with my friend Sarah Rees Brennan. Also my husband was there, as were our friends Alex and Lowell, and we had just been to Harrods and bought a lot of food in the food hall, because they basically have everything, and my husband is attached to very old-fashioned English food like meat pies. The more weird stuff in the pie, the happier he is, like if they’ve managed to shove a whole pig in there and six eggs, it’s his birthday.

So we bought all this food and we took it to the park to eat by the Serpentine, which is the river in Hyde Park. And my husband ate like sixty pies and the rest of us were grossed out because you know, our tastes have advanced since 1911 and we prefer not all our food shoved into a pie. So we were left with many pies, which Sarah and I carried down to the edge of the water and started throwing at the ducks.

Sarah: What kind of pie is this?

Me: Uh…duck pie. With eggs.

Sarah: The ducks are eating DUCK PIE? They are CANNIBAL DUCKS?

Me: Ideally we can breed a race of them and rule the world.

Then we threw the rest of the pies in and when we were out of pie, the ducks chased us, because ducks are basically evil. Anyway, when I got to writing Clockwork Angel I gave this particular escapade to Will and Jem because when you’re writing you often draw on actual experiences that you have had. Also, I had taken against the ducks.

As a postscript, last October I went back to Hyde Park with Sarah and Maureen Johnson and Maureen’s boyfriend who we shall call Lionel though that is not his name, and this time Sarah and I deliberately brought duck pie and fed it to the ducks.

Me: I espy a reddish gleam in their eyes. They remember us from last time.

Sarah: Operation Cannibal Duck is a success. Soon: profit.

Lionel: Why are your friends so strange?

Maureen: I have no idea what you mean.

"You have to leave room for the holy ghost when you dance." "Gee I hope the holy ghost doesnt violate me that be scary being violated by some ghost that will be loosing its holiness.... will it violate me?"
