SNOOPY and "It Was a Dark and Stormy Night"

The phrase "it was a dark and stormy night" was originally penned in 1830 by Edward Bulwer-Lytton's novel, Paul Clifford. It has since been used in many books, movies, television shows, and campfire settings, but the most famous use of this line is linked to Charles Schulz and his Snoopy character.

The book captures the essence of writers block, scattered thoughts, and run-on sentences. I can so relate to Snoopy, the writer. Take a moment and enjoy this delightful morsel of extravagance.

I love it! Thank you Shirley.

  1. Glad you enjoyed this timeless classic by Charles Schulz. He was a man who found comedy in ordinary and not so ordinary situations.
