Mission Accomplilshed

For anyone following this blog regularly, I have said I wanted to write some short pieces as well as work on novel. And today I finished, oh, fifth draft of a short piece about my wonderful Aunt Jane. I think I'll send it somewhere. It is done. It is the best I can do.
And for once, dammit, I feel ok about it. I told her story and mine intertwined with hers. She wore gold hoop earrings; so do I. She smoked for too many years; so did I. She was a mavrick; so am I. She was much alone; so have I been. She loved her work; so do I.
Cheers.(And I think it is written well.) And to say that, for me, in a public place, is cause for celestial celebration.
claire- definitely a work in progress
