I do a lot of what ifs with my books, but I've never done any connected to my life's choices. I'm not one to spend a lot of time looking back, but choose to consider choices looking forward. Like---what's next in my life.

That career pretty much ended when beautiful, colorful patterns were replaced with the newest fad - dots, stripes and plaids that could be done on a computer.
