How Do Famous Authors Define Success?


Me and Jacqueline Davies (of The Lemonade War series)

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children…to leave the world a better place…to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Michael Offutt is hosting me TODAY .
If you don’t read Michael’s BLOG , you might want to fix that and quick. His posts are humorous, informative, and sincere. They’re sometimes longer than your average post, but I hardly notice it.
He took my post, which asks, “How Do You Define Success?” and made it way cooler with excellent quotes and visuals.

Please VISIT and find out what I learned from Lois Lowry, Kathryn Lasky, Jacqueline Davies, and Bill Thomson about success.

Thanks for being part of my Fangtales blog tour, Michael!

  17. I think writing my own short stories has gotten me more interested in anthologies and, of course, having a story written by you makes Fangtales a double win. Only problem, my mother is the one with the PayPal account. -_- And she's been wanting me to ask for things besides books.
