Back to School Challenge Day 05: Dedicated to the Ones I Love

Day 05:Share your own story about what or who fostered the love of reading in yourself.

Oh, boy, I could go on for ages about this. And I kind of do over on my Meet the Cast page. So if you want the details of exactly how these people influenced me, you should check it out.

• Mrs. Veissleman, my first and second grade teacher
• Ms. Kephart, my fifth grade teacher
• My mother
• Ms. Allevan, a high school English teacher
• Ms. Vondrachek, a high school English teacher
• Ms. Symond (ne' Martin), a high school English teacher
• My co-workers
• My horrible teenage years when I hated everyone and everything. Books were an escape and still are for me.
