Stephanie’s Most Likely To Is: "Most Likely to Be All Over the Place"
In The Alchemist, the main character (who is only referred to as “the boy”) is a shepherd, and this is central to how he thinks about his life, his possibilities, and his dreams; and we talked with Stephanie about what has been the driving force in her life.
Throughout the book, the boy encounters an interesting cast of characters. These characters have a way of either showing him something he needed to know, or helping to reveal something to the boy about himself. Stephanie talked about the people who were only in her life for a season, but had a big impact on her.
The main character in The Alchemist often finds himself alone on his quest. We talked with Stephanie about the ups and downs of trying to find people of similar spirit during her young adult years. We talked about the realities of the real world, and meeting people whose dreams have been packed away.
Stephanie also talked about some of the surprises of being the mother of a two-year old, and about what she does to stay inspired.
