Where My Writing Muse Takes Me with Award-winning Children's Author, Donna McDine - Dee and Deb Off They Go Kindergarten First Day Jitters



Welcome to today's edition of Where My Writing Muse Takes Me. Today, I take you behind the scenes of my true story of my fraternal twin sister and I being separated on the first day of kindergarten.


The inspiration of Dee and Deb Off The Go Kindergarten First Day Jitters is a tribute to my endearing bond with my fraternal twin sister, Deb. The story is a true account as to how we were separated for the first time in kindergarten. For back then, pre-school was not a class type that was available. I cannot imagine navigating these past 50 plus years without Deb and our bond continues whether the adventures are together or apart. 

Us then and now...

Love you immensely, Deb!
