Watch Out Bakersfield!

Here I COME! Armed and ready for an all day workshop! Can't wait!

But before I go, I wanted to share to amazing quote I discovered this week (via Kate Coombs) because they really made me aware of fantasy's long-reaching arm and I wanted you all to have a chance to mediate on them, too.

If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales. --Albert Einstein

When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking. --Albert Einstein

Don't those rock?? From EINSTEIN, no less!

Have a great weekend!

Hope you have a great workshop!

I love that Einstein quote too... it's on the Laini's Lady I have hanging over my writing space:

They are gorgeous fairy-women with all sorts of excellent quotes, designed by author and artist Laini Taylor (of Lips Touch Three Times).

I also have the one with this C. S. Lewis quote: "You can never get a cup of tea large enought, or a book long enough, to suit me"
