I have finally arrived ...

My college English teacher told me I should start a writing career. He liked my style. I did not follow his advice; and now, thirty years later, I have finally found a way to continue with the career I chose and yet satisfy my craving to write. This is a hobby for me. My chosen career is computer programming, and that will continue to be how I earn a living.
