Today’s word of the day is brought to you by Sunday Scribblings: Life Swap
After reading Shel Silverstein’s autobiography for my ACL class, I would life swap with him. But only certain parts:
~ Endless travel
~Homes in different places
~ Camping out in the conference room of my publisher to take over the production of my book (if I was going the traditional route, that is) and have people be on Celise Patrol (glorified gofers that would bring me whatever I needed)
~ Worldwide adoration of YA fans
~ To have ideas come so ridiculously often that if I don’t have any paper around, I have to use what I got–whether it be my arms are the tablecloth at the restaurant where I’m eating.
~ To leave a million dollar legacy that includes: continuing royalties, books translated in 20 different languages and sold well over 20 million copies.
~ To know that I lived my life to the fullest, doing what I love most, and not have any regrets whatsoever.
