Everday People Who Have Inspired You. Sometime people who have inspired us or taught us/encourraged us to create are not famous.
They our people in our daily lives. Tell us who they are/were for you.
I wrote song lyrics starting at age 13 but didn't really start writing the free verse type poetry I write now till age 16.
I was encouraged to do this by an English teacher. I still remember his name, how he looked and wonder where he is now. I often refer to that as "the poetry year". I have it all somewhere in a special book painstakingly copied by by hand at a time when computers were not an everyday thing. I still remember some of it off the top of my head.
Re: Everday People Who Have Inspired You. Mm... I saw this... and... due to recent events, I think.. I need to share, lol.
Umm.. this is a bit touchy for me...
but...
My aunt Sandy has inspired me... SO much. She actually passed away... yesterday... yeah... So, it's a bit tender, heh, but... she had breast cancer and stomach cancer. She's the most amazing woman I've ever known. She faught her cancer with such strength... man...
She is the one person who told me that I was good at writing, and that I needed to keep going and never stop. She made me promise her that I'd never stop writing, so... don't be surprised if you see some stuff coming from me... considering... now I've got to make sure I keep writing.
