book age would-be
It would be so great to have someone my own age to talk to, even if it was just about books.
judging people important
Maybe we judge people too much by their looks because it's easier than seeing what's really important.
people shy juniors
I was painfully shy, and I had tremendous difficulty making friends. So, lacking friends, I watched other people. Watching is something all writers must do, and it was in junior high that I learned to do it.
fun kids play
I wrote poetry, journals, and, especially, plays for the neighborhood kids to perform. I had an ordinary, happy childhood. Nothing much was going on, but I had fun.
stars ambition writing
Although my other ambition was to be a musical theater star (and I would attend college on a voice scholarship), writing was never far from my mind.
forever magic live-forever
The magic is over, but its effects will live forever.

Everyone can use a little beauty.
romance letters beastly
What happened to romance? Sappy, soppy longhand love letters.

Any experience that isn't fun is probably something I will at least use in my writing someday.

A shoe that fits one person pinches another.
sacrifice faces needs
Maybe you actually do need to face obstacles with someone to know that they're the one you'd sacrifice for.

You shouldn't miss someone who don't miss you, right?

A beautiful thing is precious no matter the price
writing contemporary-fiction want
I write contemporary fiction, and that is what my readers want to read.
