Animate Your Ancestors
Hi All, it's been awhile. In January, my younger brother Mark died unexpectedly and I didn't quite have the time or energy to write a blog. What his passing has taught me is the importance of capturing the essence of the people and stories in our family. Mark was an unusual, talented and much loved person. He will surface as one of my characters in my second book.
We are all stories, as I've said before. Even if you didn't know some of your ancestors, it's fun writing about who they might have been. Sometimes I think they're writing their own stories and I'm just taking dictation! Whether you write just for yourself or to pass along to future genrations, capture what you can. You may find elements of yourself there.
