No wonder Uncle Dean will never die until he sees you dance again! I always wanted to dance (but alas, I settled for the least coordinated thing you can do which is running and even then my coach said my gait was too bouncy). Perhaps the art is best left to talent such as you and Morg! Happy bday and invite me too if you ever take the stage again!Kristienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03032583748596284870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600322131005020674.post-10095355370000126222013-08-26T20:09:51.798-07:002013-08-26T20:09:51.798-07:00Really inspirational post :) I've got a book I...Really inspirational post :) I've got a book I've been working on with a different idea than what I'm used to, but the research makes it more exciting for me and I like to learn new things. :) Thanks for sharing! :)Randi Hardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15843455735213286041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600322131005020674.post-55203068429102674062013-08-26T10:10:45.425-07:002013-08-26T10:10:45.425-07:00Yes I relate to this completely!

I'm actually planning on writing another. It was such a special time in my life.

I watched enough dance shows to know that it takes tons of discipline to be in ballet. It's neat that you guys have such a wonderful connection. I hope you can capture more of your childhood and bring it to life in your stories. My daughter inspires me. I think of how she'll be when she becomes a teen, (a dainty little beauty busting at the seems with energy and life)and I weave parts of her into my YA stories. Thanks for this post. I really enjoyed it. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326522346206157210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600322131005020674.post-76913653266127717772013-01-20T20:58:32.911-08:002013-01-20T20:58:32.911-08:00I adore this post!

And I was a storyteller from the time I was little, whether I was playing with my dolls or making silly home movies or directing a neighborhood play. When I grew older I focused on acting, and in the last several years I have come to embrace writing. All these things are my way to capture that magic you're talking about.

I think it is wonderful that you are so appreciative of your sister and that she gets it and gets you. Sisters can be magical, that way. I envy your wonderful childhood. You asked if we have any people in over lives who inspire our work. I grew up, the middle sister, of five girls and five boys (yup- four sisters and five brothers). We were very spread out in age, with some of us clumped together. There was a short time in my life when all ten kids lived at home. Then the oldest left for college and then the next and so on. I am sure you can imagine, the arguing, fights, jealousy, tantrums etc., with that many kids. But, we also had the togetherness, secrets, camaraderie , the feeling of belonging and knowing that someone always had your back, and so on. So, yes, my siblings have been enormously helpful in my writing. Every time I need to imagine a time in my life when I felt the same emotion that my character is experiencing, so that I can better express it in my writing, it is easy to conjure up images and memories of just about every emotion . I can easily pull anger, love, fear, terror, anticipation, confidence, smugness, irritation, annoyance, hatred, rage, sadness, etc. (the list is infinite) from my memory bank. I take that back. I would probably have a difficult time conjuring up the feeling or experience of loneliness. We didn't have much alone time and the best part about having such a large family is that I was never alone or lonely. I enjoyed your post.Melissa Sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16268333458796847721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600322131005020674.post-35872817281963962712013-01-17T11:10:42.406-08:002013-01-17T11:10:42.406-08:00Very nice.

Some days, a good line of prose will roll out and I have to pat myself on the head and say, 'Not bad.'<br /><br />At least, until I get to my review group. ;)AVDutsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068169781166515350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600322131005020674.post-69918272306925679412013-01-17T01:16:34.681-08:002013-01-17T01:16:34.681-08:00I enjoyed reading this post.

It is the author and how much they put into the story.
