'Writing is like sex. First you do it for love, then you do it for your friends, and then you do it for money' - that's Virginia Woolf misquoting Molière. My point is one can begin with a passion for writing but somehow once a writer begins to be published or tries to get published the original joy can be dented and pushed out of shape. Losing the passion for a thing is sad whether that is writing or anything else.

Living a happy, fulfilling and passionate life and helping others to too. I like creating beauty and observing beauty along my path.

I’m working on more. :-) at this point the “more” is in progress. Isn’t it always?

Mine, right now, is running. I don’t know why nor do I understand it. I only know how it makes me feel.
