Joy and Gratitude

Photo by A.T.I write and draw for a living. Every so often I'll stop and think about this and wonder when I'm going to wake up.

And then I fall in love with Jeff all over again, remembering how he convinced me to quit my programmer/analyst job at a bank many years ago so I could pursue my dream.

I am so very, very lucky.

That's so cool! Love to both you and Jeff!

I am also working on achieving my hopes and dreams to become well known writer, or at least make a decent living from it. I have always wanted to do this and I finally got the support and courage I needed to begin the long journey. I would love some advice from someone who is already established. Feel free to check out some of my posts and let me know what you think. I have a lot of my poems posted on my site right now.
