My first blog interview is today, and I’m a bit overwhelmed by the experience! I can’t ever remember being interviewed for anything other than a job.
I’m over at Joan Hall Writes visiting with Joan and answering her questions about my writing life. Joan and I met online, and since that first meeting, we’ve been encouraging each other along in our mutual love of writing. Here’s a short excerpt to tempt you.
* * *
When did you first realize that you wanted to be a writer?
You know it’s hard to remember when that realization came alive. My father was in printing and publishing, so printed matter was his life, and he shared his love of words with me. My first absolute recognition of the power of writing came in the fourth grade when we were assigned to “write” book reports. I worshipped my teacher, who also served as the school librarian. When she returned my report with an A grade and a notation “good job,” I felt the affirmation and confidence I was continually seeking as a child from my mother. This teacher stepped into my life and began to fill that void. Together, perhaps my father and my teacher began rubbing the flint that would later become the spark of wanting to write.
Now, won’t you join Joan and me at her blog to read the rest?

Sherrey – I enjoyed doing this so much! You are truly an inspiration to me.

Joan, as did I! The inspiration runs both ways. 🙂
Blessings to you,
Sherrey
Dear Sherrey, I love how you introduce the interview on your blog and invite your readers to go over to Joan’s to read the rest. What a great approach. I hope you don’t mind if I copy you.And I’m going over to Joan’s place now. xoxo
Madeline, I do not mind at all. I think it’s a great way for both bloggers to share their support for each other. Copy away!
What a wonderful interview Sherrey and Joan, Thank you!
Thank you, Kathy, for your continuing support!
That’s a great interview Sherrey. I learnt a few things about you I didn’t know. I am looking forward to your book.
Cate, thanks so much for your comments. I am hoping to get some writing done on my book as we travel by train over the next couple of weeks. We’ll see!
Reblogged this on Wyndy Dee and commented:Very nice ladies! Good job!
