What...Such a wonderful and inspiring post, Sandra! What a wonderful experience for you and Gretchen and a gift of love for Debbie by helping her publish THE PICKING BAG. I know what it felt like to hold my published book for the first time, I can only imagine what an accomplishment it must have felt like for her to hold it in her hands- to be able to realize a dream, before it was too late. I remember that my mom held the publishing contract that very week before she passed away. I remember her smile and tears. I'm so glad that she read a draft a few months before that.<br />You are so right that you never know what direction your talent may take you, and you only need to be open to seeing the path before you and brave enough to take it on. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Just thi...Thank you for your kind comments, Joan. <br /><br />Just think how many soon to disappear stories would be saved if every author agreed to write the memoirs of just one person in their family or community. <br /><br />Sandra Sandra Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680755110645856989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3884813691327716608.post-55874114137646886242017-01-28T20:01:38.392-05:002017-01-28T20:01:38.392-05:00Dear Sandra,

It was a writing journey all in its own that you expressed well. And thanks, too, for mentioning my newest project. Writing other people's memoirs is a privilege that comes with a tremendous responsibility. Truly it's a humbling experience, but well worth the effort.Gretchen Griffithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00218259974490265609noreply@blogger.com
