Start writing now!

For anyone out there who's been thinking about writing but hasn't taken that first step, remember that your voice is unique, and your story is worth sharing. Don't worry about perfection in the beginning; just let your thoughts flow. You can always revise and edit later. As the pros say, "You can't edit a blank page." Start writing, and you might discover a world of creativity and self-expression you never knew existed. It's never too late to embark on the writing journey.

I began my novel, Mexican Interlude over 20 years ago, and it's finally complete. Procrastination, lack of self-confidence, and critical comments held me back. Now, I have two other books already halfway finished. I'm making up for lost time.
