Hamlette is hosting We Love Sibling Stories Week at her blog! I'm filling out the tag today and will be back later in the week with my post.
1. Do you have any siblings? I have four--two older, two younger. I'm the middle child, but the first girl. 2. Who are some of your favorite fictional sibling groups? The March sisters, the Pevensie siblings, and the Blythe kids are the first that come to mind. I also adore the Keiths and Lightcaps from the Millie Keith series (Martha Finley, revised by Kersten Hamilton) and the Collinses from the Sugar Creek Gang series (Paul Hutchens). 3. Are there any fictional families you wish you could belong to yourself? It feels . . . almost treacherous to wish that? But I have to say--imagine being a Whittaker and having John Avery Whittaker as a father. I mean, there would be the inevitable Sad Things, and lots of international intrigue, but I repeat: WHIT as a FATHER. (And, ahem, I wouldn't mind having Jason as a brother . . .) 4. Have you ever watched or read a book that reminded you of your own family? I'm blanking . . . I don't think so . . . I'll probably think of something after I post this :P 5. What fictional sibling would you NOT want for your own sibling? The three youngest Bennet sisters would drive me crazy pretty quickly. 6. Are you more drawn to stories about brothers or sisters? I don't think I have a preference. Actually, brother-and-sister stories are my favorite. I adore those. 7. What makes a story involving siblings interesting to you? A realistic portrayal with lots of heart. Y'know, when siblings genuinely enjoy each other and can actually get along without bickering all the time. And that's that for today! Don't forget to check out the fun at Hamlette's blog!
