I am in awe that she can write so much with her responsibilities--children are not something that can be put on the back burner while you chew over an idea for hours.

Abin asked questions with real depth and Laurie responded in kind, thus giving us an interview to remember.<br />"compelled to post a poem as a new mother sharing pictures of her newborn" is so apt, Laurie, as is the much-loved quotation from Emily Dickenson.<br />I enjoyed this very much.<br /><br />Kay, Alberta, Canada<br />An Unfittie’s Guide to Adventurous TravelKay L.
