Gerda Saunders
I think that I will not be able to write a book again--my focus has become worse over the past 5 years of writing; also, I am less able to keep the whole arc of a narrative together than I was right after retirement. Accordingly, I am writing only my blog at the moment. I think I might still have one or two essays in me, but time will tell. Writing takes me endless time; every day I ask myself what my priority is for the day. If I have a day with little or no family interaction, I often choose writing. Given that I know that the time left in which I will still be rational is limited, I feel that my relationships with my husband Peter, my two adult children and their families, and my close friends takes top priority over writing goals.
