Suggested Activity: Do you have favorite family quotes you’d like to record for all time? Why not design a poster in honor or memory of that person? See: http://quozio.com/
Or you can weave a family quote into a story. What a great family treasure that would make and a terrific gift too! Have fun! And perhaps it will become a legacy. See “legacy” here: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/legacy
Need some inspiration before writing your own quotes? Check the internet for quotes. Here’s one suggested site: http://www.brainyquote.com/
Thank you for visiting “A Writer’s Playground.” I look forward to your comments. Please remember that children 13 and under need an adult to comment for them. For more fun, sign up to follow my blog. Thank you!

Carol,
I’m glad you liked the posters. Thanks for saying so. You most definitely could weave a family quote into your story. You’ll always treasure that line and hopefully it will become a favorite of readers too. Thanks for commenting.

Linda, Iove your posters. I’ll have to try that. I’ve been ending my blog posts with what I call inspirational quotes. You’re right. It is a fun thing to write.
lindamartinandersen said
Joy,
I hope you will try the poster site. I’ve noticed your inspirational quotes at the bottom of your posts. I enjoy reading them. Thanks for letting me know that you love what I’ve done here. I appreciate the compliment. Thanks for all the positive messages you put out there!

Clever idea, Linda. I’ll try to think of some. Of course, your posts are always clever.

Wow, that’s such a nice thing to say, Sarah. I’m glad you’ll think on some family quotes to use on posters. As always, it’s great to have you here.

You’ve created another inspiring and creative post, Linda. I’m working on a Coloring book for grown ups with inspiring quotes that I hope will encourage and inspire others too just like you do. 🙂
lindamartinandersen said
Tracy,
I love the idea of you creating a coloring book for adults with inspirational quotes. Go, Tracy. You know how to do your own share of inspiring and you come through! Good luck with your project.
Tracy Campbell said
Thanks, Linda 🙂
lindamartinandersen said
Tracy,
I hope you sell tons of coloring books for adults. Maybe they’ll take the place of doodling in class, company meetings, etc. Who knows?

I’ve never considered composing my own quotes, Linda. What a great idea!
