They are definitely on my list - I want to know if the old "fingernail polish" trick really works (it doesn't seem like it does), and do they really burrow down into your skin? Any other questions you'd like answered about them?

That's so cool. I never knew that there was such as thing as a writing spider, I thought that Charlotte's web was just being particularly fanciful (that book traumatised me so much as a child).

That's an awesome wall hanging that Andrew's mother made. I love that she put a writing spider into it.
