interspersed with questions, always questions.

Probing, ponderous, preposterous

“Seriously nonna, where did the first grandmother come from?”

Evolution, it’s a big question when you are four.

I write...I suppose, because I always have. Once a journalist, then a PR writer, for the first time I am dabbling in the creative. Now at semi-retirement I am still deciding what might be next.
