I believe ...Hey honey...I'm glad to read this! I believe you are far from alone on this front. I was inspired exactly the same way. It wasn't because Twilight was such a phenomenally literary piece of work....it was because it made us fall in love with reading again. It caused us to suddenly remember what made us love reading and writing in the first place...it lit a spark. We were writers long before Twilight was ever even thought about, but life...as it often does...pushed pause. Our babies and families were our focus and our roles as individuals got pushed to the side. And that's normal. Being a mother involves sacrifice, but..the passion to be YOU never goes away. I've often said you amaze me with all that you do and I have no doubt you will be a published author one day. You want it far too much...and..your a talented writer. Keep it up honey and best of luck! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686424597825645224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263745103864967456.post-17365308362136741992010-11-26T18:30:03.134-05:002010-11-26T18:30:03.134-05:00Great inspiration for us all.

As a grandmother, I can say that throughout my life I've found that being creative in any area has always brought more creativity into my life and energized me. Not only are you setting an example for your children, writing most likely helps you to give more to your children in other ways, too. I'll be looking for your first book on the shelf.haiku love songshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07399389464545429355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263745103864967456.post-72147263762256771682010-11-24T21:03:53.228-05:002010-11-24T21:03:53.228-05:00This is a great post helpful for kids and us strug...This is a great post helpful for kids and us struggling moms too. Not giving up to me means it is 3 am in France and am still writing because that is the only time when everything is quiet enough to write.

If you have a dream, find a way to make it work. I'd been dreaming of writing since the 4th grade. Unfortunately I allowed life to get in the way of obtaining my dream. Now, at 62, I've just signed my first contract with The Wild Rose Press for my contmeporary romance. I hope there are more to come. Kudos to both of you for pursuing yours sooner than I. Best of luck to you both.Vonnie Davis ~ Romance Authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07360480832587538895noreply@blogger.com
