You are so spot on .. so often we never stop and look at our trek through life, noting the victories, and they do add up. What a great reminder! Thanks

Sometimes those victories pass by without being celebrated. I think we need to take the time to celebrate them all.

This is so good. I didn't get a chance to really explore my love for writing until I was in my late 20s. Then, at 40, after I had a mild stroke, I really got a chance to get into it. I'm 50 now, and I have seen many little successes that I'm proud of. I'm almost done with my first nonfiction book. I'm pretty excited about it.

Awesome! When that's ready let me know. I try to write reviews for small press and independently published writers. I've been doing that for decades because the mainstream press doesn't represent us. I usually can't get a whole lot of attention for the books I review, but it's something, and as my platform grows so does my reach. I should interview you for a podcast sometime too.

This is the first voiceover of your articles I've listened to. I'm impressed. This is especially helpful for those with visual impairment, but it's also nice to listen to if you're cleaning up or doing some other necessary task (like folding laundry).
