So I've been thinking about this article by Liz Smith I read in Parade this past Sunday about actress Amy Adams, in which she (Amy)was talking about what it was like to work with Meryl Streep on the film Doubt.
Liz asked, "Did she [Meryl Streep] give you any advice?
Amy replied: "No, which I appreciated. She set an example. There was no hand-holding, no condescending. What could give you more confidence and more reason to do your best?"
I LOVE that.
Hi, Irene. I read that article, too. Isn't this what the best teachers do? So inspiring. Congrats on "Leaving Gee's Bend." I'm active in my region's SCBWI. Do you ever go to the national conferences?
