"Fun" Interview with author Diane Dean White


Diane Dean White
 


Former newspaper reporter, frequent contributor to a variety of magazines and books, a weekly columnist for five years and currently working on her second book of Christian fiction.

***
Hello Diane! Welcome to The Purple Brick Road. What project are you currently working on?

Right now it is to make this Christmas special.

Our son and daughter-in-law are returning to the mission field in March, and our daughter's hubby has just been asked to go to China on a three year assignment for his work. So our daughter and little grand gals will be gone for three years after Dec. I'm so grateful for the opportunities they'll have,  and feel fortunate that our older son will be staying in SC!  I realize time is precious and I want to make the most of this coming Christmas with all the kids and grands. So, it really is my project for December and a family photo and old favorites for the kids are on my list to make for dinner. (My book, which I'm doing a final proof on will resume after the first of the year).


That sounds lovely. Name 5 favorite movies. Why?





1. All time favorite "To Kill A Mockingbird." Showed the reality of the way life was during a time and period in the past.

2."Friendly Persuasion" Sweet story about the Quaker (Society of Friends) religion and how hard it was to walk with those beliefs, with humor, love and truth.

3. "Murphy's Romance".... Sally Field and James Gardner had a fun chemistry in this older film, and more of a chic flick, it showed the hard work a single mom took on, and a lonely widower who fell in love with her over time.

4. "Fried Green Tomatoes" Just loved it. How many times have we traveled through a lone town and wondered what the past was like.
Great story in so many ways!!! (Loved the scene with the gals in the little red VW---wishing I could find an old car and do that to it!)

5. "A Time to Kill" -- love court room drama! The beginning makes you want to hang the two guys who violated this little girl and tossed her to die.
I related to the young lawyer and how much he wanted to do justice, but was up against the old ways in the South. The ending was brilliant and it is a favorite for sure.

If we Googled your name what would we see?

A list of stories that I wrote before Facebook when various mailings were being sent around the country with heartwarming stories on them. Also, my website, which needs updating badly!!


What would you do if you were the last person on this Earth?


Worry that the rapture took place and I was left behind!!! (Pray that God would sweep me up to heaven).

What's your favorite Christmas memory?
Just a time in the late 50's when I'd go down into the living room and sit next to the Christmas tree when it was very early morning, and plug in the big egg size lights and think about the coming Christmas and wondering what presents I would get. The link below will share more.

That sounds absolutely beautiful! What a "FUN" interview! Thanks, Diane, for visiting "FUN" Interviews on The Purple Brick Road. It was a pleasure to have you. And a big thank you to everyone who tuned in.

Christmas is the season to celebrate a marvelous time of parties, gift-giving, children's pageants, joyful music, family movies, and family reunions-which all combine to create lots of fun and laughter.
