(Embarrassingly mixing her up with another Sandra for a full two hours before realizing my mistake.) <br /><br />I took on the job of getting the Coop to order books by the authors in our class--it was so interesting to see the breadth of talent and topics.

A classmate who also goes to my church urged me to go to the last two, and I really enjoyed them. As I was "the Shyest Girl" in the yearbook, I wasn't very social in school but everyone talked to me. Maybe because we were older. I never considered college because it's further away, and I was only close to a few people that I lost touch with.

I was pleased to see how many were doing what we always wanted to, but saddened reading the names of those lost in Vietnam.

I was fortunate to get into Berkeley, though it was not always accessible. I consider it a big achievement that I graduated from Berkeley despite the obstacles!! Since I already am involved with my college alumni association, I help out at reunions. <br /><br />Congratulations on your Red Book. If I was writing my Red Book, I would write that I am living the life that I want to live. I think I have a pretty good life. I am not going to rub other people's nose with the details. Some people are struggling. It is a waste of energy to be jealous or envy other people. Would you be surprised if a certain person you are jealous of had the same feelings about you? They could be jealous of you. If they are doing something you always want to do, then you figure out how! Write every day if you want to be an author. Ask friends to read your rough drafts. Interview different literary agents. <br /><br />Apologies if I was blunt for a minute.<br /><br />Diana<br />Bibliophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07764234701385787238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-44407069109070870292018-06-20T14:36:52.215-04:002018-06-20T14:36:52.215-04:00No Red book for us - that’s the way to go!
