OK, I am very quickly becoming a major fan of your writing, Huan Yi. You have much talent and am a bit curious as to when you first began to write? Jan |

. Thank you both Jan, I would say the real beginning was when I got to begin scuba diving alone. Before, in the USMC, I once saw a master sergeant sorting through another Marine’s personal effects before they were sent home to the family. I was a pretty intense lone diver; people assumed one day I wouldn’t come back. I took the two to heart and so I began to write and then make miniature copies of the results to carry in a billfold left in my gear bag. Things pretty much progressed from there. Thanks again both for reading John . |
