I have been staring at this blank screen for ten minutes. Who I am.
I am Viki Short.
I am the wife who has followed her husband from one promotion to the next. Leaving behind children as they stayed in the nest that I had to leave behind.
I am the Mom who raised three sons. My email address says a lot about that part of my life.
I am the woman who cried while reading Kate Stone Lombardi's "The Good Son," screaming "I'm not alone!"
Which led me here.
Kate, I want to thank you...perhaps even adopt you.
Who I am encompasses 55 years of life, love, hate, mental illness, betrayal, morphing and remaining the same.
I have at least five novels in my head and dozens of short stories. I have great recall of my upbringing in the deep South during integration, tales of catching a bank robber and a murderer and much much more.
May I leave it in this place?
