It's a great background to come from.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing the work and Sandra's insights and story.<BR/><BR/>Janet Riehl<BR/>www.riehlife.comJanet Grace Riehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921731725804450430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375847995047931856.post-69007961715217828232009-03-25T08:50:00.000-04:002009-03-25T08:50:00.000-04:00It was such a pleasure meeting Sandra a few weeks ...It was such a pleasure meeting Sandra a few weeks ago. And this interview is inspiring...<BR/><BR/>I particularily love this that Sandra said about writing: "...joy of discovering new worlds and engaging in the creative process. That, and the encouragement of my teachers. Even though I wasn't very good at all, in terms of language or plot or anything really, my teachers always told me, "keep trying!" That's great advice, of course, because the more you write, the better you do get."<BR/><BR/>Thanks, Sandra, & Mary! Look forward to the second half.<BR/><BR/>Diana<BR/>http://basicblackblog.blogspot.com<BR/>http://woofersclub.blogspot.comDiana Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06177915857090560626noreply@blogger.com
