Hi Susan – just had some time to catch and read your proposal and all the blogs. THANK YOU – this is very interesting, and wonderful that you are sharing your writing. Though I’m sure it will get more difficult to write as you get busy. It is all super fascinating – I look forward to keeping up with you. I would hope to be of some assistance – if you need to bounce ideas, or want me to research or find something here for you, ask questions and issues arise. Lots of love and luck.
