Perhaps some of the "gobs of SignWriting data" could be made available on our SignWriting Web Site as a resource for others. I will be glad to post it for you and we can talk about it later, when I catch my breath. I recently received this email message (see below). It seems your story in Nicaraguan Sign Language on our SignWriting Web Site has gotten notice...

Note from Valerie: I visited their site and it is charming - many educational games that refer to published works on the web. Our stories are not listed on their site yet, because I just gave them permission. It will take a few days before they are available. They also chose one other story from our web site, Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
