Normal Families in Wolfe

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

My readings have been by no means exhaustive, but I can point out a few
stories that explicitly mention families.

"Hunter Lake"  (Science Fiction and Fantasy, Oct/Nov 2003) features a
divorced mother and her daughter. I have this in .pdf if anyone wants it.

"The Peppermill Man" (Fantasy & Science Fiction, Oct/Nov 1996) is about a
boy who just had his sister die. His mother is divorced.

"Houston, 1943" features an intact family, but the father is a travelling
salesman.

In "Under Hill," Princess Apple Blossom  has 526 sisters and 610 brothers. I
really don't know if this could be counted, though, because she is a
princess from the Chi'in dynasty.

By the way, I have "Bea and her Bird Mother," "The Little Stranger," and
"The Gunner's Mate" saved as .pdfs as well, if anyone would like to read
them if they have not done so already.
