Real Life Questions
#1: Do you think it’s important to write about what you
know?
A: I
think it is important to write about what you know. You want to write about
something you have a passion for. If you didn’t enjoy or know about what you’re
writing then you won’t have any fun.
#2: What are three tips you would give to parents of
teenagers?
A: Give them space, treat them like the adult
they are, and do get on to them for every little thing.
#5: How old do you think someone should be to date? Wear a
thong? Fall in love?
A: I
think fifteen is the appropriate age to date, being thirteen to wear a thong,
and that any age a person can fall in love. I don’t think you can put an age
limit on love.
#7: Can you know in three days if you love someone?
A: Yes,
if it’s true love then it can happen in the shortest of time.
#8: What are books that would pull Marie in?
A: I
would suggest the Delirium series and any Sarah Dessen books.
#18: What are some good pick up lines you’ve heard?
A: “Do
you have a band-aid? Because I think I scrapped my knee falling for you.”
#30: Are you a good bowler?
A: No,
every time I have bowled I have come in last a lot.
Good advice--pick your battles with teenagers. I try to remember that as a teacher, and as a mom of a soon-to-be teen.
