Lisa that quote u wrote about sisters as u know also have a unique relationship. This is the person who knows u your entire life, who should love u and stand by u no matter what and yet it's your sister who knows exactly where to drive the knife to hurt you the most. I have a baby sister exactly like that. For over a year I have been trying to get her to love me as a sister and friend like we were last year. nothing?

Donna,
I just turned in my next novel and have been catching up on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ messages. I so wish I'd seen this 35 days ago when you wrote it. I hope things are better with your sister now. In case they aren't...
I'm one of four sisters. I have a half-sister that's my mother's daughter, a half-sister that's my father's daughter, and a former step-sister that I've now know for 56 years. I think we all go through periods where we're close and when we aren't; when we love each other and when we hate each other. When I was working on Shanghai Girls, I interviewed a woman who hadn't spoken to her sister in 40 years! I said, "You must not feel like she's your sister anymore." She answered, "Of I do, because sisters are for life." I believe that. I'm really hoping that what you and your sister are going through is just a tiny blip in what will be a lifelong relationship.

I so enjoy your books! I want to go to China and see what you write about! There is a local church that goes on a yearly basis, to establish a relationship with the Chinese people. I've been unable to go...My dream! Where do you suggest a person go to see the China you remember or write of?
