I stopped when I was about 24 and didn't start up again until I was almost 31. Isn't it amazing that we still manage to come back to it?Jessie Cartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13181286764480973423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089616.post-48953335136132110592007-06-07T01:11:00.000-04:002007-06-07T01:11:00.000-04:00Greg: Thanks!

I know I'm not old enough to be your GRANDmother... :P <BR/><BR/>Peter: Thanks! It is weird to think about having been so derailed for so long, and I'm still not sure what it was that brought me back, but thank goodness for it. I guess most people's writing careers don't take the most direct trajectory, eh?Anne Haineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17038705452206752521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089616.post-44415309275884390662007-06-06T22:59:00.000-04:002007-06-06T22:59:00.000-04:00Wow.
