The Little Engine That Could

Daily writing prompt
Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

My childhood favorite book was The Little Engine that Could. Perhaps you read that one when you were a little kid? I was about three when it was read to me, and I memorized it until I could read it on my own. This was the book that let me know that I wanted to be a writer when I grew up and encourage people to use all their power until they achieve their goals.

What is your favorite book from childhood? And why?

Rosemary’s writing purpose:

Thoughtful. Encouraging. Spiritual.

With the life that God grants me, I want to use my creativity to encourage people to desire a realm beyond the merely physical, like J. R. R. Tolkien did for me. Also, I want to point people to where they can find Him, as C. S. Lewis did when I was an atheist. I am now following Jesus,, and I don’t look back.

Finished THE HORNED EDGE … now to do the cleanup.

The creation of Book 3, that is the transference of thoughts to writing, is done, done, done. In other words, Now I’m weeding THE HORNED EDGE of at least 5,000 extraneous words, and tending its flowerbed, and even renovating some of the landscaping!

A happy place — He leadeth me the quiet waters by.
