—Philip Judge

I have been mulling over writing a memoir for years and always used the excuse of “writer’s block”. Now that I’ve come to terms that it was never that, but rather fear that was holding me back, I’m ready to take the plunge. I love the bite size bits you’ve developed. I no longer feel paralyzed by, what could be, an overwhelming task. Thanks so much for your guidance.
