Me? I like writing. Sure, you have to take a break from time to time or it gets to be too much. But it's a great way to make a living.

That is somewhat like asking why I breathe; just can't stop, and life as I have come to know it would be over without it! However Joanna, you describe it so much more eloquently! Why do I write?

It's fun seeing the power of your own words, isnt' it? I'm reminded I must go and get a copy of the Age of Conversation. I tried last week when you mentioned it but the publishing site was getting some maintenance - must go back later today. Joanna Hi Robert – glad you like it.

I’m reminded I must go and get a copy of the Age of Conversation. I tried last week when you mentioned it but the publishing site was getting some maintenance – must go back later today.
