Thanks for the shout out , Jen! I didn't know anything about your TikTok so now I know who ask if I'm ever ready to give it a go. And I'm thrilled to learn about an alternative to Goodreads

Elizabeth, you will likely dig TikTok/ booktok. Writers galore on that platform!

Glad you enjoyed it. I just saw this comment as I was doing a Zoom book presentation with OLLI in Huntsville, Alabama.

I lived on a sailboat when I was a senior in college, many years ago. Would love to do it again

It's a great retirement plan. Of course we are not retired so...I guess it's just a great life plan!

My husband lived aboard a boat one year in college too!

I’m retired but Patti my wife is still going strong. I spend my days publishing a couple of newsletter and getting started on two ebooks and what I hope to be a book about my life. That’s a long story.

We're both working on new books, too, and my day job is editing too. Best of luck on the memoir!
