Thank you, Linda. My anti bullying play, I'm Sorry was recently produced in St. Louis. I was told by the director that it was well received. I am constantly trying to get the word out about it to nrew schools and theatres. If we save even one child the pain of being bullied, it is all worth it.
As for inspiring, I visit schools and talk to young writers and share my books. Hopefully they enjoy the visit and perhaps decide to write something themselves.
Stay in touch. Thanks for reaching out.

Give it time. It can't last forever. To me it just means there is a better idea coming. You need to stay positive.

When I visit schools I always mention that fact that I didn't particularly like writing when I was in school. The reason? I was told what to write. I tell the students, do your assignments, but there will come a time when you can write what you want to write. It is an entirely different experience.

My first writing project was a play. I was directing at a professional children's theatre. We needed a new script. I decided to give it a try. The rest as they say is history.

The best thing about being a writer is you get to control your destiny. Of course, if no one reads what you write, that is difficult, but you have the option to write again.

My friend Santi Centner was posting some of her photographs on FB. I have always admired her talent. I suggested the idea to her to do the book to bring some of that beauty to people personally in a book form. We will see where it goes from here.
