I think books are like people in the sense that they’ll turn up in your life when you most need them.
– Emma Thompson
I have always been a writer, beginning with the very first “screenplay” I wrote for one of my favorite TV shows when I was a young girl. My dad encouraged me to send it to the television network- there were only a few back in those days!-and what a thrill it was for me to receive a letter of encouragement from them telling me to keep on writing. And so I have!
I continued my writing with poetry and animal stories and I even wrote a “book” one year during summer school. It was a story about taking a magic carpet ride all over the world and I really loved that story! Since I spent so much time in the school library writing my book, the librarian (who was usually a pretty grumpy guy) asked me what I was writing so I showed him my book. I’ll never forget how his face lit up with the biggest smile as he handed it back to me saying, “you will be a writer someday!” How did he know?
I realize now it was all in preparation for the books I would write in the future and that “future” is now and I’ve written two. I am so happy!
My guides often tell me it was part of my pre-birth plan to be a writer. It would be my way of touching the collective with the deepest truth I know. I am so grateful for the help I’ve received all along the way- in both human and Spirit form- in order to bring these books into the hands and hearts of others. They are channels of love.
