Starter Questions

For those of you with stories to tell, here's a few questions to start the juices flowing. Depending on the response, I'll change the questions from time to time, so check back every once in a while. You can e-mail the answers to me at bgephart@comcast.net. Thanks for sharing!

My Grandfather

Let's start with your grandfather.
  • What was your grandfather's name? Where and when was he born?
  • What did he do for a living?
  • Where did he live?
  • What is your most vivid memory of him?
  • What did you like most about your grandfather? What did you dislike?
  • Did he have any sayings or songs he repeated often?
  • What kinds of things did you do with your grandfather?
  • What did he tell you about his life?
For younger writers, whose grandfathers are still alive:
  • What is your grandfather's name?
  • Where does he live?
  • What do you like the most about your grandfather?
  • What kinds of things do you do with your grandfather?
  • What kinds of stories does he tell?
