Back to the Beginning
According to this photo of me as a baby, I was always analytical.
By nature I analyze everything I do.
So when I recently spoke to the creative writing class at Eastbrook High School, I wanted to go back over the questions they asked. They asked some great questions! I wanted to share them with here with you and then I'll take them one-by-one not only answer them for you, but allow you to comment with your own answers.
If you would like to add your own answer in the coming days, then I'd love to hear your own story. Be thinking of how you would have answered these and we'll get started tomorrow.
