Haha, I love the interesting places inspiration comes from. I think I saw this at the book store earlier today (if not then I refer to your other post on homogeneity) and it seemed interesting…

Overarching influence from my parents of course, but I will ALWAYS remember the seemingly random moments of encouragement given to me by a few respected teachers here or there. You expect your parents (hopefully) to be supportive and encouraging, but when a teacher went out of her or his way to single out one of my talents it really stuck with me.

I’ve had several big influences in my life – my parents, grandparents, mentors.

I’m looking forward to reading your new book – it looks like a good start to a new series. Thanks for the opportunity.

I think one of the things that influenced me most was dropping out of college when I was 19. That failure propelled me to go back later, finish school, do well in the world of work. It helped me figure out that yes, I’m going to fail sometimes but it’s okay and I can get past it.

This book sounds great!

I am going through school to become a teacher. My sophomore history teacher inspired me and helped me make my career choice.

I love the cover of this book, very pretty. I am excited to be entered to win

My English teachers from Junior High has a huge influence in who I am today. Without them, I would have never discovered the love for reading.

My life has been influenced by my family, friends and education. A lot of my views were formed by what I’ve learned in school through books and teachers. Congrats on the new release, Lori.

My Mom & Dad read to me every night before bedtime when I was young. Now Mom & I are avid readers. My Dad was always reading something…including the encyclopedia…while he was alive, too.

When my two sons came along, I always read to them every night before bed as my parents previously did for me. I’d have to say my parents and two sons have been a big influence in how I view life from all stages of its continuing big circle.

I’m always reading something and would love to also read your book!

Thanks!

My kids influenced where I am today. After they were born I made the decision to stay home for them. They are all grown up now and I’ve never regretted my decision. My life would probably be much different if I hadn’t made that decision.
