Margaret E. Knight was an ingenious woman.

Marissa chats with Lynn Ng Quezon about her debut historical fiction YA - MATTIE AND THE MACHINE - as well as the similarities between writing historical, retellings, and fanfiction; drawing on primary resources and documents to spin your historical tale, and how small details can spark new ideas in your plot and backstory; deciding when to stay true to history and when to massage the facts, dialogue, or even personalities of your characters to make for a more engaging story; dealing with comparisons and jealousy when it feels like your writing group is leaving you behind, and why it's important to celebrate the successes of others; plus some words of wisdom about ergonomics, stretching, and regular movement.

Today we want to give a little attention to an invention that plays a part in your life, that you probably never think about - the flat-bottomed brown paper bag. I mean, have you ever seen a brown paper bag tree? Have you ever gone digging for paper bags? Have you ever looked up at a cloud and said, “oh boy, looks like it's about to start raining flat-bottomed paper bags any second?” Of course not, because there's no such thing as a flat-bottomed paper bag in nature.

Yankee Ingenuity.... Another name for the spirit of invention. Some have asserted that because labor shortages perpetually plagued Americans, prior to immigration, that the Yankee mind was uniquely innovative, always searching for new labor saving devices. To wit: Eli Whitney’s cotton gin. But the spirit of innovation also came from another place in America, the open patent system, making innovation accessible to all, blind to race and gender and to the amateur or the professional. This talk explores the motivation and successes of four female inventors: Margaret Knight (the flat-bottomed paper bag machine), Margaret Stewart Joyner (the permanent-hair-wave-machine), Hedy Lamarr (a radio wave changing device that blocked signal jamming by the Germans in World War II) and Elizabeth Maggie (the woman behind the Monopoly game). In doing so, Dr. Amy Green explores the range of inventions credited to women, the reasons for success and failure, and more generally to evoke the spirit of innovation in America writ large.

To quote 500 poppies: Lynn Berry and Margaret Knight set out to crochet a humble 120 poppies to “plant” at the Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne Australia for Remembrance Day in 2013 in honour of their fathers Wal Beasley (14/32nd Battalion – Australian Imperial Forces) and Stan Knight (Queen’s Own West Kent Regiment – British Army). Say RHS Chelsea A breathtaking display of thousands of handmade poppies adorns the vista from the showground to the Royal Hospital this year. Designer Phillip Johnson, who won Best Show Garden in 2013, is the creator behind the poignant flower exhibit. Using almost 300,000 individually crocheted poppies, Phillip’s garden design covers nearly 2,000sq m (21,000sq ft) in the grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, and show visitors can admire his work from the showground. They also note in the printed programme: Major sponsors, the Victorian Government and Quantas have flown the installation to London. The estimated load is 35 cubic metres of poppies - approximately half the cargo hold of an A3 Airbus.

Music* Under the credits is Harlaamstrat 74 off of John Dankworth's Modesty Blaise score.* First bit is called Steep Hills of Vicodin Tears by A Winged Victory for the Sullen from their self-titled album. * A brief bit of Occam II for Violin by Silvia Tarrozi scores the shuttle accident (non-NASA category). * We've got Eloy by Deaf Center. * Finish out with Call from Julianna Barwick's album Pacing. Notes* There's no, proper, grown-up biography of Margaret Knight (as far as I've been able to locate). Though there are a handful of kid's books of varying degrees of charm and accuracy. She does pop up in a fair amount of "Lady Inventors!!!" collections. I read a bunch of these, but I want to single out one for its rigor: Autumn Stanley's Mothers and Daughters of Invention.
