I'm in my 60s and been writing since I was a teenager. Maybe I'm just tired. Still, I can't imagine doing anything else. <br /><a href="http://www.su-sieeemac.com/" rel="nofollow">The View from the Top of the Ladder</a> <br /><a href="http://www.take25tohollister.com/" rel="nofollow">Take 25 to Hollister</a> Su-sieee!

I'm picking up a book this week that I have to dust off that's one of my favorites "Thinking About Memoir" by Abigail Thomas. It's a nice little read with nice suggests for writing. I think it is in this book she wrote one of my favorite lines ... paraphrasing here ... "I don't care if it's only a grocery list ... I love the feel of the pen moving across the page". I'll find the exact quote and bring it back here to you. She really hit the nail on the head with it, for me!Suddenly Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12483813654827621158noreply@blogger.com
