Good friend Tani read my Medium article and suggested I write a memoir. "You've got wonderful insights."
More than once I have thought about writing a memoir. Flax Into Gold would play the tale of Rumpelstiltskin against my growing up on Flax Street. Spinning straw into gold? A magic trick. But turning my hardest experiences into gold? There's a winner. It would be witty and moving and insightful...
I've never written it for lots of reasons ranging from my subconscious refusal to honor my writing time to my belief that, frankly, I'm not gold. Brass maybe: less valuable, still durable.

I think it is great idea and I think you owe it to yourself and the rest of us, if you have the energy. Some of us need you.
