Dear Readers,
I am thankful to Kevin for conducting this interview with me.
“I am honoured to post the below interview with Gabriela M, a writer I greatly admire, and I’m extremely grateful to Gabriela for her kind words regarding my own work. You can find Gabriela M online here, https://shortprose.blog/
1. What is the first book you remember having read?
Kevin, before I answer your questions allow me to thank you for this interview. I greatly admire your poetry. I am honored to be your guest.
The first book I remember reading apart from Snow White and other children’s books is Jules Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days. I was fascinated by it.
2. In relation to question 1, What impression did the book make on you?
It had quite an effect on my life. I was very young when I read it. After reading it I got this idea that I must travel to see the world. The desire to see the world caused me to attempt to run away from home.
My parents loved me very much. I had a happy childhood. Can you imagine my parents’ shock when I first ran away from home? I was a little girl walking the streets by myself, talking to myself, and marveling at every new thing I saw….”

A wonderful glimpse into SPF. So, you were born feisty. Walking off on your own to travel the world. Great story. Not the least bit surprised little G would be ready to face the world alone. The power in your writing serves as a clue to the passion inside you.
Great book to fall in love with literature, reading, the world, and one’s imagination.

My favorite: What inspires you to write?
Pain, love, devastation.
That is why us poets do what we do to heal the world with our words.
