Our stories and characters sort of provide a place where we can step back. I've enjoyed your books so much. Looking forward to more!<br /><br />JeanmarieJeanmarie Hamiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08974232341270295299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397823929405584725.post-72907000622879540062011-01-21T13:55:00.950-05:002011-01-21T13:55:00.950-05:00Thanks Susan, Caroline, Paisely.

Except in the most extreme circumstances, there's a part of us that steps back a bit and become an observer, storing the experience somewhere to be tapped into later.Denise Eagannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397823929405584725.post-68285974662272657142011-01-21T13:11:45.556-05:002011-01-21T13:11:45.556-05:00Good luck with your goals, Dee.

I've used my writing to 'go someplace else' when life is too difficult to bear. <br /><br />I acutally tried to stop writing once, but missed my characters and my writing so now appreciate the time putting my stories to the page more than ever.Paisley Kirkpatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401039126457210324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397823929405584725.post-52674412297159327742011-01-21T13:05:42.526-05:002011-01-21T13:05:42.526-05:00Dee and Isabel, great interview.

This is a new year, though, and I'm determined to finish two books this year. A GOAL, not a resolution. LOL So glad you're writing again and things are looking up for your family.Caroline Clemmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14914658854159456335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397823929405584725.post-45253686401853660782011-01-21T12:43:31.148-05:002011-01-21T12:43:31.148-05:00Sounds great, Dee!

It's hard to get back into writing when life forces you away, but I believe when you're a writer, your mind never stops constructing characters and situations. It's sort of ingrained in us.<br /><br />Best of luck with all your goals!Susan Macateehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476340887041053638noreply@blogger.com
