I admire anyone who starts out “not knowing what they’re doing,” but pushes through it all, to create something uniquely theirs – as well as creating a space in which someone else can take a step forward on their own life journey – i.e., her father being able to reveal his secret diary.

And then to top it off, airing on PBS! Bravo!

Mostly because I made a living writing academic reports, government reports of field work in archeology, journalistic articles about Texas history and natural history — and my fiction projects were not top of mind. Now in retirement, I’m pushing forward but cautiously because fiction is not my strength. And because the world of fiction publishing is so unknown to me…that’s why I subscribe to these blogs…getting up to speed as it were. And in the meantime, I act on something I know about — interviewing people and wrting up their stories of animal rescue.
