Thanks for this great comment Garret. It is a terrific validation that my effort is actually helping people. I am so glad you have found value here. I know a little about Barbara Sher’s work but didn’t know she advocates “doing it all.” Since you are finding how cathartic writing is, you have discovered that the more you do it, the better you feel. That’s awesome. Please feel free to leave more comments as you find ideas that resonate, or want to add your own.

Jerry, thanks for your resources! I had been working on my own memoir for a while before having found your site and the addition of your information has been a huge motivator for me. Thanks for your comments on thanking God for my day job. You’re right, and the more I discover myself, the more I realize I don’t want to quit anything. I just want to do it all. Is that to much to ask. Not according to Barbara Sher. Thanks again for all your thoughts and willingness to share. I’m amazed at how cathartic writing is. I’ll be reading every entry, Garret
