Fun story: So one of my first memories of writing is of my mom bringing me to her friends house where we would have a writing circle. My mom, her friend and her oldest daughter would take turns writing lines of poems while two younger children played. Flash forward a few decades and here is my book on display next to an amazing book written by one of the kids who was playing at our little poetry circle, side by side, at the most iconic book store in NYC, pretty cool.
