Overview"The Story Behind the Sarah's Legacy Series The fascinating account of how the Sarah's Legacy series came about. In Diary of a Series, you'll discover how Daisy and Donn became residents of Sandy Lake, Pennsylvania, the setting of the Sarah's Legacy series; how Daisy's interest in doing research was piqued by researching the history of the Potter place, a landmark in Sandy Lake; how information obtained through her friendship with Isabel Dye whetted her appetite to write a fictionalized version of the lives of some of the former residents of the house they purchased at 81 Broad Street; and why the writing of this series spanned a period of almost twenty-three years! You will enjoy following the unfolding of the research Donn and Daisy did as their focus changed from a desire to discover the age of their house to a desire to discover everything they could about the former residents. You will learn that Daisy's original purpose wasn't to have a historical fiction series set only in Sandy Lake. Daisy discovered one of the most satisfying aspects of writing about characters based on real people was getting to know the descendants of those people. When one of them told her, ""It feels like you're one of our family!"" Daisy replied, ""For the past few years, I've spent more time with your ancestors than I've spent with my own family!"" Besides all that, you'll get a sneak peek behind the scenes to find out that real life goes on for an author, regardless of her health or the health of her family, and why it's truly miraculous that this series was finished in a timely fashion."
