You absolutely must know the location of a library…

I can say this with absolute truth. My life began when I got my library card… every door, every object of my imagination was opened to me for the first time in my life. We were poor, and the library was our golden snitch, it was!!

My mom didn’t have a drivers license when I was a kid. So all of our adventures were on the bus. Or through walking somewhere. I was allowed to check out as many books as I could carry. I’m telling you my arms were full…

I learned everything thru books. Vocabulary. History. Cooking. Cleaning. The works. It was all thru the pages of a book. I owe the library everything.

After my parents divorced I had to learn simple things, the real things, the necessary things. Like I didn’t know how to cook; introduce cookbooks, how to clean; thru how to books, my fiction life began with Ramona Quimby and continued thru many series and characters to this day.

I trusted the library with my wishes, my health, my happiness. It has delivered tenfold. I am writing stories of my own now. Inspired by the characters the librarian introduced my too!!

That is all I have for tonight friends. I spent the day at two local libraries. Joy fulfilled. Life and writing are a work in progress…(just like me)😉
