Gerrbeck,

It's been some time since I've been active on the site. My computer went down and it took me a long time to get another one. That has finally happened.

Thought I'd add something to your question about writing. My two sisters and I set out to just put our memories down on paper for our children. It has blossomed into a nice book of short stories. Each of us wrote those that we wanted to and have put them into a nice manuscript.

Just take your time writing down what you remember for that particular memory. You don't have to finish it or get it full of details at first. You can come back to that later. It has taken us about 2 years to complete the project but it is now almost ready for publication.

I have some great books that might help you get into it further if you'd like. Let me know. Good luck!
