Brydo, when I became disabled and faced an early retirement, albeit by only a couple of years, Someone suggested that I researched my ancestry and write an account of my life.This was then extended to writing verse, no one can describe it as poetry, and I also write short stories ( absolute unexpurgated nonsense in the main) for our ‘voice ‘ exercise class on a Friday morning.
I have put this nonsense together, and I am now on my third book, produced only for local charity , not for general sale – It keeps my mind active ?
