“Somewhere in my wildest childhood I must have done something right. Being able to make a boyhood dream come true is one thing, but to have a kid come along and thrill his dad like Brett Hull has thrilled me over his career is too much for one guy to handle.” DoneDreamKidsAbleGuySportsCareersToo MuchOne ThingChildhoodDadHandleThrillDreams Come TrueBoyhoodHull Author:Bobby Hull
“The one thing about kids is that you never really know exactly what they're thinking or how they're seeing. After writing about kids, which is a little bit like putting the experience under a magnifying glass, you realize you have no idea how you thought as a kid. I've come to the conclusion that most of the things that we remember about our childhood are lies. We all have memories that stand out from when we were kids, but they're really just snapshots. You can't remember how you reacted because your whole head is different when you stand aside.” ThinkingKnowsWritingLittlesIdeasDifferentWholeKidsRememberLyingBitsRealizingMemoriesSeeingOne ThingChildhoodLittle BitOur ChildrenGlassesConclusionNo IdeaStanding OutSnapshotsMagnifyingMagnifying Glass Author:Stephen King

“One thing about having mostly absent parents that I think was perhaps "good" for the development of my intellect/writing is that I was given almost total freedom to read/write/look at whatever I wanted. I wonder a lot about how my past experiences, particularly my negative childhood (home life and being severely bullied/ostracized throughout school) as formed my/my thoughts/my writing, though I should also note those things were far from the only thing that had an impact on me/my writing.” ThinkingShouldWritingLooksHomeWantedSchoolPastGivenParentWonderOne ThingChildhoodDevelopmentNegativeImpactNotesIntellectMy ThoughtsAbsentMy PastBulliedPast ExperiencesHome LifeFreedom To ReadChildhood Home Author:Marie Calloway
