My love affair with books

I love to read. At any given time I can be found reading at least 2 books. I firmly believe that has inspired me to write. The books that have inspired me the most are very varied. They also span 4 languages.

The books that mean the most to me are the ones that have helped to form who I am.

So saying that I have to say thank you to the following authors be they living or dead.

Gertrude Chandler Warner for writing the Boxcar Children, thanks to you I wanted to live in a Boxcar
Walt Whitman his O Captain my Captain remains my all time favorite poem
William Shakespear his plays continue to inspire me
Victoria Holt she started my love affair with romance books
Nora Roberts you continue to amaze with the stories that you write


These are just some of the authors that have influenced me, and I think you.
