"I live in my own little world. But it's ok, they know me here." -Lauren Myracle
Books, especially the ones you write yourself, are your own little worlds. They can create a family and new friends; they make you feel happy, sad, frightened, warm and fuzzy, and perhaps most of all, grateful. Grateful for imagination, grateful for an escape, grateful for the ability to create something that you can have all to yourself or share with the world. Books transport us, they make us fall in love, they break our hearts, and take us on new adventures. #longlivelit
