| Some of My Puppetry Background |
| Q: Why do you write puppet scripts? What motivates you? |
| My husband is the Deacon over children's events for ages 2 through 12. He uses them for Children's Bible Hour on Sunday nights. It is just my way of helping him out. |
| Q: Tell us about your church or puppet organisation. |
| Children's Bible Hour runs from August through May each year. It is something fun for the kids and they are learning God's word in the process. |
| Q: How did you get started in puppets and what attracted you to this area? |
| I got started in puppets when my husband and I volunteered several years ago to help out. |
| Q: Where does your inspiration come from to write puppet scripts? |
| Whatever comes off the top of my head. |
| Q: What advice would you give to someone just starting out in puppetry? |
| Remember that kids' minds work differently from adults. Stay on their level, keep it simple, and be a little silly. |
| Q: Who are your favourite puppet characters and what do you like about them? |
Daphne: Because she is always a great help.
Seymour: Because he always gets things really wrong.
Kid James: Because he is a big ole bible. |
| Q: What are the most important qualities in great puppet scripts? |
| Lesson it teaches, teaching it in a fun way. |
| Q: What would you do if you were a puppet? |
| I don't know what I would do. |
