Hi, I am a full-time feature writer/writer. And house husband. Aged 58. My website, endastories.com, is a repository for published and unpublished articles and occasional blog musings. I am juggling writing creatively with regular interruptions. welcome and unwelcome, from my kids and Bella our black and white terrier. My 12-year-old daughter just asked me for ice-cream as I was typing the last sentence! I want to put some stuff out here and get feedback. I am struggling with isolation, confidence, and direction. I am way too old and insecure to fall for false praise but secure enough, I hope, to accept tough but fair criticism.
