“When I was a kid, my favorite movies were the George Pal version of 'War Of The Worlds,' 'Them,' and 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers.' Those movies were scary! They haunted my nightmares for years, so when I started writing, I wanted to write a story that was just as big and just as scary.” WorldWritingYearsWarStoriesBodyBigsKidsWantedMy FavoriteScaryVersionsWar Of The WorldsNightmareInvasionPals Author:David Gerrold
“I guess for me, balance isn't about treating your time like a pie chart and dividing it into equally sized slices for you, the kids, work, and so on. It's about the quality of how you spend your time, not the quantity--are you being present and focused on whatever you're doing while you're doing it? I truly believe that's how you can be the best version of yourself, whether you're in work mode, mom mode, or wife mode. When I know I'm giving my undivided attention in each of these areas, I don't feel so guilty about the time spent away from them.” KnowsGivingFeelsBelieveKidsAttentionQualityWifeMomBalanceAreasFocusedVersionsGuiltyBeing The BestQuantityPieDividingTime SpentUndivided Attention Book:The Honest Life (Enhanced Edition): Living Naturally and True to You Source: The Honest Life (Enhanced Edition): Living Naturally and True to You
