My mother was French and was fluent in the language, but she never wanted her children to learn French, which I found strange. She apparently had her reasons. Ironically, the only words I learned from her were not so nice and were heard only when she was mad at someone or something. I personally think it is a beautiful language and have used a little in my story. It shouldn’t distract the reader. College wasn’t something my parents could hope to give their children due to circumstances that were beyond their control.
In the course of attending classes later in my life, I began to enjoy writing essay papers, even though, in the beginning my English comp. 101 teacher made mention, ‘Your writings are always very mature, but all over the place. Put it together, and your works will be very good.’ That was a wake up call for me. Here in “Living Out A Dream” I strived to be coherent and make this an interesting and enjoyable story for my readers.
As a wife of fifty-two years, a mother of three, a grandmother of eight, and a great-grandmother of two, and at seventy-one years of age; I hope that my family will one day place my book on their coffee table in memory of my works. After all, how many grandmothers write a book. I have fallen in love with the children in “Living Out A Dream,” as I am sure the reader will, as well. I also hope that the readers of “Living Out A Dream” will occasionally feel the humor in my soul. I, indeed, hope you enjoy!view less
