About Me
In that amazing zone of retirement, I now have the time to devote to achieving my goal of becoming a published author. I am commitment free, determined and willing to commit my time to writing, rewriting and editing in the desire to achieve my goal. My family think I have lost the plot. My response to that is, 'No I have the plot and most of the characters now all I have to do is complete the second draft and refine,refine, refine'.
