My Book

From what I can see, nothing really spectacular has ever happened in my life....  until recently.  (The last 10 years!)  So I really didn't think I had that much to write about. However, recently, I read a book called The House on Mango Street .  It's a very quick read.  The chapters are short.  The book is short.  It's really great.  It also got me to thinking....  If a house could influence a book like that, then the house I grew up in is perfect.  So I have started writing.  It's a REALLY rough draft.  I might finish is before I'm 90. :)  But.... if inspired, I might finish it before I'm 40. If I wrote a book, would you read it?
