    1. Thanks, Amira, but I try to keep my nose down in my own reading, writing and occasionally even stepping away from the screen. 🙂

I would love for you to perhaps write a short piece to be added for my site. It could be of any genre and length! your writing would appear on WeWannaWrite (my wordpress site) and I’ll fully credit you for it and credit you as an honorary author on it! Please do get back to me about this! Thanks for your time Cate! =)

        1. Thanks so much for the invitation; that’s an honor. But I write just for myself these days, after a career of writing for others in various ways.

    1. That’s a little tongue in cheek. It was a terrific career in the pre-Internet days, before the newspaper industry largely collapsed. So good, in fact, that being part of a newsroom was sort of addictive; hence the “recovering.” Thanks for asking!

      1. Ah, yes – I agree – am a former journalist too. Was difficult to make a living out of it then & wonder how journalists do it today.

  6. “… practices the sacred art of not knowing” (!!) Loved those words, and I’ll “adopt” them, if you allow me. 😀
