What is the aim or goal of your writing:
I just point myself in the direction I want and keep heading that way. Sometimes the journey is smooth and quick. Other times the trip is long and strewn with obstacles.
2nd ed. says, "Our family hobby of raising and tending our herd of American buffalo keeps us busy and provides constant learning experiences. My husband, children and I do research with buffalo and at present we are working on on anti-cancer vaccine for humans using buffalo. Sometimes it's very scientific and sometimes a dusty, frightening rodeo."
