Writing feeds me, too, and blogging is such a nice way to connect with other writers. I am in search of a writing group that fits my schedule and that meets in person. In the meantime, it's so nice to read posts like this one, to listen to what inspires you and to hear about your works in progress.

The things you write about interest me always and I am pleased to tag along with you on your adventures, even if it is virtually.<br /><br />It is beginning to warm up a bit here and things are beginning to pop in the garden, especially the peonies. Have a wonderful remainder of the week, Lorrie.

Your beautiful Spring flowers perfectly described and perfectly pictured (the sweet aroma of Wisteria will be in my thoughts all day -- it's one of the Spring flowers I miss here in Florida). But I want especially to thank you for your writing. I have thought a lot about the unique relationship we have with other bloggers. So interesting to feel as if we know people whom we've never met. It is a gift I certainly didn't expect and one I value. I love reading your blog -- and I'm honored always and a little awed when a *real* writer comes to visit mine and takes time to leave a comment. Thank you.

Funny, ...Your writing groups sounds just wonderful.<br />Funny, but most of my friends and none of my family read my writing on my blog. I enjoy writing it and reading what others are doing too. <br />The wisteria are amazing. There is one wisteria I have been visiting this spring and can't wait for it to be in full bloom. It seems to be slow, but I am enjoying the process of watching.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-21779764575497921102022-05-16T14:35:58.531-07:002022-05-16T14:35:58.531-07:00I'm thankful we met through Blogland.

I've never really thought about it, but there is something to be said about writing what one likes to read. I have been going through old posts and find they are gifts to me now. There are many things I would have forgotten. Also, when I write about real life and it makes me cry, it's okay, because someone else is sure to identify.

I think you admirably fulfill Anne's writing goals because it is always a joy to read your blog. So many times I've read a sentence or paragraph you've written out loud several times from sheer admiration of your talent. I once tried writing a mystery book that was to be the first of a series. She was a minor character in another book I was writing and I had her down pat, loved her, had the plots mapped out. Ha! I soon found out that I was not a mystery writer, even though I love reading them. I wish you better luck with it than I had!<br /><br />Best wishes in all your writing adventures from another grandmother to a little Cora,<br />DewenaDewenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07330797553600987145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-45562706872716359562022-05-14T08:34:16.014-07:002022-05-14T08:34:16.014-07:00Oh that Anne of Lucy's.

Course, I do find myself wishing I could teach grammar. π<br /><br />I doubt that your "real" friends would enjoy your prose. Mine don't anyway.

That is something that is so worthwhile, especially for your children and grandchildren. So many things happen in our lives that the younger generation do not know about. My paternal grandparents travelled around the world for many months in the early 1940s, but I didn't know about it until after they had gone. I came across their old photos, and really wished I could have talked to them about their esperiences and adventures, and where they visited.<br />I agree with Cheryl - you are a gifted writer Lorrie.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-14256167084167274362022-05-13T20:26:38.873-07:002022-05-13T20:26:38.873-07:00You are a gifted writer, Lorrie!
