Rest in Peace, Lois Duncan.  There were so many of her books that I read when I was growing up and the loss is really hitting me at home. Thoughts go out to her family, friends and fans.

If stories come to you, care for them. And learn to give them away where they are needed. Sometimes a person needs a story more than food to stay alive.

" 'I have observed that male writers tend to get asked what they think and women what they feel,' she says. 'In my experience, and that of a lot of other women writers, all of the questions coming at them from interviewers tend to be about how lucky they are to be where they are – about luck and identity and how the idea struck them…' "
