Everyone here likes writing, meeting new people & learning new cultures. What makes me unique? I love cooking and trying new recipes and cuisines. I'm an award-winning published author of flash fiction and creative nonfiction. Because I see retirement as a chance to try new things, I just started oral storytelling. Belong to zoom writing and storytelling groups. Hope to start a real-world storytelling group & hold open mic nights. Would you believe I had a panic attack the first time I had to do public speaking. It's all about personal growth. Love dogs, volunteer work, laughter, & walks
