On a memory and work in progress
My first crush when very young, like seven, was a same-aged girl named Sarrah. Of course it didn’t go far, and an older brother teased me for it.
But I am considering naming the main adult woman in my work-in-progress fictional novella Sarrah partly because of that young girl and partly because of the Hall and Oates song “Sara Smile.”
It can be hard to tell what influences you.
