    Bananafish308: Welcome to the site, Charley. Wonderful quote. I am a bit embarrassed to admit I was not familiar with Anne Lamott before a few minutes ago. Thanks for introducing me to this wonderful, humorous, and insightful woman. I now have a new writer to look forward to reading! Best of luck with your writing. -
