No matter what type of a writer you are, there is likely to be someone that has inspired you along the way. I love to write fantasy and inspirational pieces and have many people to thank for my love of this work. When I think of fantasy I think of books like The Never Ending Story which was one of my all time favourites. I loved the magic and the message that came across in the book. The little boy who was being told to stop believing in fantasy and to keep his feet on the ground. I loved how the author told of the “Nothing” which was tearing Fantasia apart. This “Nothing” was actually children no longer believing in magic and dreams.
