An "Educating Rita" start. Teacher of French now living in France and teaching English.
Took forty years to evolve from Catholicism to Atheism.
Almost sixty and realising for once, that this is it,this is life, and not for too long ahead either. It doesn't get any better than this.
I have started my first novel and am finding the grind of it more draining than I had thought. It's also draining my confidence.Grateful for any advice from other writers.
