Why me?
Why now?
I started this page by posting my responses to prompts in a Memoir program by Shari Caudron. After another shorter program, I have continued with very little organization. My commitment to myself is to do this for fun and discovery.
These pieces are NOT carefully edited.
Lately, ChatGPT has been helping me figure out how to organize them into an actual memoir. I will probably publish it someday.
Meanwhile, consider them my reflections about this wonderous life journey.
