As a radiology nurse, Deb Burton has used interview techniques with her patients as a way of distracting their anxiety, and in doing so met some interesting characters and inspiring individuals. That same technique, employed with depth and love, allowed her to write her parents' biography. Heartwarming, funny, nostalgic, and inspiring, Deb weaves storytelling, historical context, and her experience writing for magazines and a local newspaper to bring the best of her Dad and Mom's history and experiences to life. Be inspired. Share your life stories with those around you, too.

Admittedly sleep deprivation plays a part in how creative I am during any moment I have to write. Sometimes the juices just aren't flowing. If it truly is due to fatigue, I have to give myself permission to catch up on rest before tackling more writing. If I just feel like I'm spinning my wheels or veering onto a tangent that is irrelevant to what I'm really wanting to say, I have been known to stop, pace my living room in prayer, and open myself to God's leading. It's worked on several occasions.(less)

Some of them I'd heard before, but for whatever reason, maybe because I had just turned sixty, I had a clarity about how important it was to write their stories down. I had intended to keep the book short, but as I interviewed my folks the richness of their history and experiences became evident. I became their storyteller. In turn, I gained inspiration and admiration. My Mom and Dad are really interesting people!(less)

Everything I knew about my grandparents came from time spent with them as a child. However, I knew nothing of who they were.
