A few thoughts after reading through this, for the umpteenth time. I will, at some point consolidate these episodes into a single book and expand on it at the same time and hopefully get it published. There's so much I haven't said, I'm an impatient writer and as I mentioned in the second installment, writing triggers the memory, incidents, feelings, get recalled by the act of writing but I'm the kind of writer who rarely edits what I've written except for details, rather, if I think it doesn't work, I remove it completely. Words tend to flow out of me unbidden and it's best not to tamper with them too much. I discovered this when writing song lyrics and poetry. One can overthink the creative process and ruin things.
