She writes, “All my life, I have enjoyed writing: essays, book reports, opinions, letters and more. The beginning is the thought process. Thoughts need to be organized. By doing that, feelings and the unconscious mind kick in. Those avenues travel and need to be crafted into a precise short form. Only a few words should express a lot of meaning.
