“I remember I used to half believe & wholly play with fairies when I was a child. What heaven can be more real than to retain the spirit-world of childhood?”― Beatrix Potter

This quote reminds me of the magic in writing & life. I believed in fairies as a little girl. I believed in everything. Every morning was an unfolding of endlessly exciting possibility. Life had no limits. I never wanted to let that go which is why I write novels about enchanted houses & everlasting love. If you keep the “spirit-world of childhood” within you, it’ll see you through many a difficult day. & I still enjoy half believing in fairies, even now.
