Do you have a book in you waiting to materialize?
Or a partially finished project that has been shoved to the back burner?
I hope these simple steps will wake a dormant desire within you and fertilize the writing field so the words sprout like daffodils—but all year ‘round.

Thank you so much for sharing your story. So much of it was also my experience of giving birth at age seventeen. I was married at seventeen to my daughter’s father. We were married 54 years until his death in 2011. I sometimes grieve the experience’s I missed as a result of my pregnancy in 1957, but feel blessed each time I look at my beautiful daughter.
Again. Thank you for sharing
