Now you live in reality in Oregon and in your memories in California--we writers never lose anything, try as we might. It all goes into our creative blender and comes out as either a delicious smoothie or a big gulp! You've chosen the first blend.<br /><br />And every novel and short story you write expands you living space, and you already have a presence that stretches from hither to yon and back again.<br /><br />Glad for your post. I look forward to more.

It's nice to experience both extremes.

And I hope you fill those silent rooms with wonderful new friends and memories.<br /><br />We are planning a move too--next year, after my husband retires, to Prescott AZ. So I will remember your experiences and I may be calling on you for a an understanding shoulder!Heidiwriterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02593338979995203659noreply@blogger.com
