Just a few questions

Comment:

Hi, I’m in my junior year of high school and have read ALL of the Alice books and just loved them and I’m glad Alice and Patrick finally stayed together in the end and Alice and her friends made their dreams come true. I just wanted to ask, Why didn’t Pamela want kids and were you sad to end the series? And do you ever think you’ll get tired of writing?

Phyllis replied:

I don’t know why some people don’t want to have children, any more than I know why some people like raspberries and others would prefer carrots.  Perhaps Pamela sensed that her mother didn’t really get a kick out of being a parent, so didn’t see much attraction there for her either.  Or she wanted a life centered around her own interests, not those of children.   Whatever her reason, it was a good one, because people who don’t want children shouldn’t have them, though some change their minds after they earn to love the little ones if they come.  Yes, I was sad to leave the series, but anxious to write how the story all comes out and get on to other things  No, I’ll ever tire of writing.
