Story Of My Life
This is not a work of fiction.
The protagonist description above is … me.
Don’t get me wrong. I love what technology has done for the world. I’m a proud Gen-Ex kid who came of age when computers were revolutionizing every part of life.
It’s just that sometimes … I feel overwhelmed by it all. Like I can’t keep up. My husband is a computer programmer who keeps our laptops up to date and virus-free, thankfully.
As a writer, I find social media the hardest of all to navigate. Instagram, Facebook, that thing previously called Twitter, Threads, Discord, TikTok. YouTube, Substack, Medium, Ghost …
And when I’m ready to publish, good luck kiddo. Amazon Direct Publishing, Draft2Digital, Smashwords, etc etc …
Some days I’m happy enough to just put pen to paper and leave it at that!
