I'd dedicate it to the person who inspired me to have the perseverance to finish a book, which is my mum.

If my story's characters are based off people who I am inspired with, then I'd probably dedicate my writing to those people.

I actually don't write thinking about someone whom I'm going to dedicate the book, but if I was to dedicate it someone it would my friend, because supports and motivates me.

Latest Review: Divided World by Kenneth Pickering

Post by MrsTurner2013 »

If I wrote a novel I would dedicate it to my husband and my father-in-law. They are the only people who have truly believed I could do anything I put my mind to. They have helped me understand that I have something to offer the world. They helped me see that my voice and my opinion were important.

So far no-one. And if was to write a novel, I would dedicate it my readers and myself.

My pets for allowing me to get through with work. :lol2: But in all seriousness, this is a pretty daunting task. I think I will have to go with my number one fan, my mother. Everyone else would be a very distant second.
