This is me, a 78-year-old turtle. I am most humble and appreciative of your support that has been coming my way. I have found my niche on Medium, writing inspirational poems under the heading: You Make Each Day By Holding-hands with Picture and Thoughts. Thank you all for finding them and commenting back your Thoughts. I feel very privileged.

I also write children’s stories. I think we writers have an obligation to little ones, to keep them engaged with reading. We must not let reading become a lost skill. More and more modern day influences turn children’s attention away from literature. They are consumed with short flash reading.

After receiving Master’s Degree in the Science of Learning, I redesigned the Tunnel Book from the Victorian era into a new tool for learning. The presentation is a 3D pull out book. Children tell me they love them. Right now I hand make each one. I hope that these books will be professionally printed and made soon.

My bucket list.

The list gets smaller and smaller each year as more birthdays come.

Become listed in Wikipedia.

Be nominated for the Nobel Prize.

Be honored as a Top Writer on Medium

Win any contest or award.

Make enough money to escape my poverty.

Become a member of Medium, so I can read more than 3 articles a month. I resort to only reading comments to the articles, I would like to read.

Live long enough to become a famous person. I have been put down all my life. I want to prove, especially to my brother and all those people, who have called me a silly dreamer. They will be sorry.
