During a hike on a beautiful fall day, I had decided to take my friends' advice and write a book. I didn't want the book to be solely about my experiences, but I wanted to learn about others' experiences as well. It is with the encouragement of my teachers, professors, family and friends that I was able to publish my first book, "Slices of Life Italian-American Stories."

Writing and the literary world will always be at the core of my life and locked in my heart. My advice to anyone who enjoys to write is as follows:

1. Take time to write each night.

2. Incorporate writing into your daily activities, such as vacations, breakfast time or during train trips, etc. Keep it at the core of your life.

3. Remain close to your family and friends who share your passion for writing. Their energy will motivate you to write.

4. Those who read and appreciate your work will offer you words of praise or will tell you what they enjoyed about your creative work. Your writing is a gift that you give to others. When they connect with your stories, you'll want to keep on writing!

It brings me joy when I see children and adults writing. It's a special gift that you can develop. Your creative work is a gift that never fades.
