Many artists and writers are asked to list who their main “influences” are. Here are some of the authors, books, and songs that have helped shape my thinking or my writing style.
Books
The Rose and the Yew Tree, by Mary Westmacott (aka, Agatha Christie, but her M.W. novels are not mysteries)
Unfinished Portrait, Mary Westmacott
A Daughter’s A Daughter, Mary Westmacott
The Burden, Mary Westmacott
Ordinary People, Judith Guest
84 Charing Cross Road, Helene Hanff
Songs
Summer, Highland Falls, by Billy Joel
Why Walk When You Can Fly?, Mary Chapin Carpenter
I’m Alright, Jo-Dee Messina
BTW, I THINK we might have a mutual friend from another board???? This is a long shot, but Amy97223 with twins?

Just reading and thinking about you Kate and praying your miracle will find its way to you sooner than later…or maybe it already is later…but still, hoping for some light on your path soon!
