In 30 years I'll be 73! How long do sharks live? I was planning to retire at 80 and go fishing so I have a 7 year window of opportunity.
I like listening to war stories. I worked with some old diggers that served in the war and they enetertained and taught me how to appreciate life. God bless them. Thanks for the great story.
It took Helen Hooven Santmyer 50 years to write "And Ladies of the Club", 1400 pages. She was in her 80's when it sold. Some claim it's the Great American Novel.

I promise never to complain again about how slow publishing is. At least for a while anyway.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can beat that. The world was created millions of years ago, but the Book of Genesis was not written until the Exile, about 550 B.C.
ReplyDeleteI defy the world of publishing to get any slower than that.
