As a child who loved reading from a very early age, it should not be a surprise that I began to write. My writing consists of the scripts and lyrics that I wrote for the children’s theatre company that I ran for over 40 years. The poems that I wrote and were published in our towns community paper each month and the children’s stories that I wrote purely for pleasure. I had a husband who loved to read and two children who also loved books. Now that I am 82 years old (or 82 years young) and living on my own, I still love to write children’s stories. If we have an imagination, it never stops creating. Even when the rest of our body slows down, the imagination is still there.
