She Is Not Wrong

A writer?   
You are kidding right?
My family reunion’s most judgmental great aunt is clearly horrified.


Everyone is a writer! She says, throwing up her arms.


I do not reply.
For the first time in forever, she is not wrong.

It truly is true ....My uncle Jerry who could barely put a sentence together found out I was a writer and he said "I can write," and he sat down and wrote me a sentence on the spot.
