A retired Baby-boomer writing amateur who has been scribbling away at this and that since the 60's. Missed the 70's more or less - I mean it's all a little hazy now, but worked at a long rather strange list of jobs - never involving writing. But I've lived thru a lot of educational experiences - not all positive but as I usually say: I live and learn - not too quickly nor too well. Married well and long, 47 years to a soulmate who we lost to covid in 2020 before they had developed a test or treatment for it.
