What is the aim or goal of your writing:
"Writing is a deep personal need. It gives me pleasure, but it is not always easy and it can be lonely. I began as a writer of fiction and I intend to do more in the future, but I do know that more nonfiction is published than fiction and one can use all one's creativity to make nonfiction interesting and readable. I've 'ghosted' a number of works for others to help them get their message across. I truly enjoy motivating writers of all ages to write clearly and in an interesting way."
