I love writing light as air stories that float, with characters just this side of nuts that are forever getting themselves into preposterous predicaments. I’m not sure why this is, exactly. I think it’s because I love to laugh.
When I first began writing, I read a wise adage that said ‘write what’s in your heart.’ More often than not, my heart seeks to find the joy in being alive. My heart wants to dance and sing without regard to who’s watching. It wants to spread the joy around, to joke a little, to bask in the sun.
In spending time with the halfway crazy and sometimes funny characters that inhabit my imagination, I can do all those things my heart loves to do—I can let it dance around free and unrestricted by the things in life that sometimes threaten to make it heavier than stone.
My greatest hope is that you’ll bring these characters into your imagination, too. You’ll allow them to lighten the load and to remind you life can be a fun ride, sometimes. If they make you happy, if they make you laugh, then that is, for me, the greatest gift of all.
