It's a different world than when I began so many years ago. I look at all the energy it takes, I watch people like yourself grow and blossom, and I think, wow, I'm not so sure I was what it takes any longer. I'm tired. I'm happy with my little success. I'll never stop writing, but ... I'm not sure I have what it takes to continue at the pace so many writers like yourself are maintaining. I'm in awe, Carrie. And so proud to know you.
