Writing ✍️ letters

Writing ✍️ letters

When I was a young kid, my grandmother, my father’s mother, wrote me beautiful, long letters.

When they would arrive, my mom or my older brother would read them to me as I was two and three years old at the time.

Looking back, I think that was one of many reasons I was impatient to read everything on my own. :)

Then I wrote my first short book 📖 at four years old.

I look forward now to this journey with my own child. ❤️ ✨

With such a fabulous beginning, the parents I had, and their parents and my mom’s family with their deep knowledge, gentle teaching and constant literary discussions,

how could I not be an author ✍️ today?

Kisses 💋

Here’s a letter Albert Einstein wrote to his son, Hans. 😊

Ordinary People

‘Ordinary People’ directed by Robert Redford

A movie that affected me deeply was ‘Ordinary People’ by Robert Redford. This movie is a favorite of my mom’s. We watched it together when I was 15. I remember looking at her beautiful, sensitive face and seeing how it affected her.

Looking back, my mom has influenced my love of storytelling more than anyone from the very beginning. She also has taught me more about character development, subtleties, good humor, and intriguing plots than any class, director, or actor I have ever met.
