Yes, I am. And I'm glad you found me and that I could meet you and your family.

Writing can enrich your life by turning “wasted” moments into interesting ones by encouraging you to listen and observe. Grocery checkout lines, waiting in elevators, barbershop or restaurant conversations. How would you describe what you see? How would you portray the conversations you hear?
Once you get it going, your own writing is like a friend who never makes demands, is never needy, is happy to be there for you whenever it fits your schedule, and is always ready to listen, whether it’s your heart speaking its truth or your ego being snarky.
Writing is one of the few things in life where the older you get, the greater your potential.
Writing is a gift you give yourself. And it’s one that just keeps on giving. That’s why you—yes you—should write. Don’t quit your day job yet, but add writing to your life!
