The desire to write came, but I never thought it was a possibility because I had zero experience. I never wrote for school, other than research papers. I never wrote for a school paper. I never wrote little stories for fun at home. Nothing.

I probably wouldn’t be the best person to tour a rocket ship, because I might accidentally launch us into space.

When I am faced with something I have never done before, I almost always hesitate.

I did what any reasonable, sensible adult female would do. I threw a pity party.
