I played in elem, middle, and high schools, and then club bball in college. I rarely play anymore, but I do like to shoot hoops with my boys in the driveway and I got to be an assistant coach for little boys last season. Still waiting to hear if I'm coaching again this year. Do you play?<br /><br />And Megan, I've always liked writing (and reading) but no, I was an old lady before writing a novel ever crossed my mind. :)Wendy Toliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642277380582169548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-76701647677662282652010-01-08T10:16:58.274-08:002010-01-08T10:16:58.274-08:00Did you have any idea in high school that you woul...Did you have any idea in high school that you would end up writing books?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05948612132999105083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-24940748797745214352010-01-08T09:50:30.997-08:002010-01-08T09:50:30.997-08:00Wendy, what position did you play in basketball?

We also thought it was fun to go to tennis matches and actually cheer -- loudly -- for ppl we didn't even know. And, of course, cow tipping, ice blocking, and camping trips where we brought sleds to go on the dirt hills. ;)Wendy Toliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642277380582169548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-83591556788268615322010-01-07T19:17:37.803-08:002010-01-07T19:17:37.803-08:00It is always fun to hear about high school days!

Wendy is my BFF ...This was the best interview ever. Wendy is my BFF and I guess I am a pain in the A** asking her so many questions and keeping her from her writing. But we never talked about a lot of her HS days. Her books are such magic because she thinks and talks like we do- we being from 15 to me now almost 18. Even some older friends of my grandpa love her books. I can see how Wendy would be a great psychiatrist. She is so kind and supportive. She knows more about me than anyone except maybe my shrinkette- no Wendy knows more. <br />She has gone with me through a number of near misses so far as boys are concerned- so I know a bunch I think about her dating life or boy crazy time. And she taught me patience. Whatever, the boyz at her HS must have been so lame not to see Wendy as she is- gorgeous and brilliant and funny and perfect.<br />Mostly Wendy and I talk about her boys and Husband “M” and pets and weather and boat and snow boarding and living in a deep freeze zone and cooking and all that stuff. Wendy makes the best Chocolate Chip Cookies in the known and un-known Universe. Wendy encourages my writing. Before Wendy I only wrote my poetry. She has me working on a book and some other writing.. She has the most complete collection of my poetry- I guess more than I have saved for my own collection. <br />Wendy takes my mind off a lot of things I don’t want to think about. She lifts me up- every day.<br />I am a better gurl because of my friendship with Wendy. U guys are lucky to have her in ur group of BEE’s. I have gotten to know Marley a little and Tina a lot. If U all are like them if U ever have a gathering set aside Bail money, hehe.Anna Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14769049753165488411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-33060769827537508122010-01-07T12:37:08.441-08:002010-01-07T12:37:08.441-08:00jpetroroy, my favorite groups in high school were ...jpetroroy, my favorite groups in high school were Depeche Mode, The Dead Milkmen, Fishbone, Bob Marley, and Madonna, to name a few.<br /><br />Tina, I'm not much of a "read over and over" type of person, but I do remember loving almost everything written by Oscar Wilde and Charles Dickens and The Outsiders.<br /><br />Llehn, my favorite subject was art and my worst subject was Geography. to this day, I can barely tell you where all the states fit on the US map! <br /><br />Marley, yes, I was all into big hair and ponytails. I had bangs that I had to curl and spray every day. I always say I should've been a teen in the 70s b/c I was tall and thin and had (have) very straight long hair. :)Wendy Toliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642277380582169548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-52240640250758994722010-01-07T10:24:58.092-08:002010-01-07T10:24:58.092-08:00LOVE the pictures!
