I forgot my password! Anyway...

All of us have special stories about growing up. If you still need to pick up some last minute Christmas presents for family members, write a couple short stories that are light hearted about your childhood with them, print them out and put them in a nice report folder. Make a label for the front with a title, your name, to whom the present is for and the date.

I started writing a series of short stories over a year ago about growing up in a Maryland suburb. I went through our family photo album and found pictures to match the stories. When I couldn't find a photo to match, I did a Goggle Image search and found pictures. It was great fun.

I'm making a stick on cover with photos and giving the stories to my sisters and my brother.

Just a little idea.

I did that the Christmas before my first book came out. My family enjoyed it so much, I started working on The Grass Dance, which was their gift the folowing Christmas.

For next Christmas I'm working on a book of my Grandma's stories especially for my family.

Good idea, Rita!!
