Member Spotlight: Peggy Adler

author Peggy Adler and her book Anatomy of a Gildy Episode

Why is writing important to you and why do you think it’s an important medium for the world? I love to write. It’s one of my many happy times of any given day. Writing is an important medium as it is a means to share ideas, philosophies, beliefs, ideology and much, much more

What are your tried and tested remedies to cure writer’s block? I’ve never had writer’s block.

What is your favorite time to write? No specific time in particular. I usually write in my head when I’m taking a walk, driving, mowing the lawn, pulling up weeds, showering or any other one of many activities — and then I put down what I’ve written in my head, in tangible form, when time permits.

What’s the best piece of writing advice you’ve ever received and would like to impart to other writers? Never have gotten any writing advice. In fact, my sophomore year in college, I applied for an English lit course and was told by the professor I could not take it, or any other courses in that discipline because, he said, based upon my Freshman course record, I had not aptitude for lit.

What excites you most about being a writer in today’s age? Everything!
