I have written a lot of stuff about my life. My close friends and family keep urging me to publish, but I think I will wait until my father passes. Although it's all true, I do have a relationship with him now and I don't want to hurt him at age 85.

I started with a very traumatic experience, then went back to earlier in my childhood. I know when reading, I like the books that get you interested in what happens to the person, then switches it up to other times and keeps you guessing.

One can (and does) always rewrite, and with the computer, one can move paragraphs around easily, the best thing to do is START.....
