All writers have a book or books that have left an indelible mark on them as a person and/or a writer. For me, the following did both and I couldn’t be more grateful for the magic and imagination that they ignited. Esperanza Rising by Pam Muñoz Ryan: This beautiful fairytale-esque book is masterfully and richly woven. The first time I read it, I was in awe. With each turn of the page, I felt as if some far away door was opening to a world of possibilities, of stories I could tell. Stories that grab your heart and never let go. This is the book that whispered to me, “you can be a writer, too.” And D’Aulaires Book of Greek Myths: I devoured this book and was utterly captivated by the gods, myths, and legends. When I told my grandmother (quite excitedly) that Kronos eats his children, she sighed and said that he had nada on the Maya god of death, darkness, and destruction. I tucked that seed away for a long time, never knowing the impact it would have on my life as a writer.
