Just read your newsletter and I'm pleased to find someone else like me. I two was a late reader. I'm also an auditory learner and since we read in small groups out of the same book I could listen and learn what was written on each page of the book so when it was my time to read it was from memory. I was in 4th grade when my teacher figure this out and I spent the rest of that school year with a privity tutor learning to read. Once I learned how to read I couldn't stop reading. The worlds I visit while reading make me feel alive. I've always dreamed of being an author and have written Fan Fiction and a few non-fan fiction. I've even enter a few contests for publishing contracts. Came in 1st with over 60% of the public vote and still didn't get the contract they gave it to someone who only got 5% of the vote said my story just wouldn't sell... I tried a second time and came in second. Then my late husbands health started to fail and I didn't have time to write or read. He passed in Aug of 2018 and I'm just now getting back into reading. He was my Muse so don't know if I'll try writing again. I will be starting this new book tomorrow as I preordered it but in the middle of another book at the moment and will have it finished tonight. Funny thing I grew up in Seattle and now live in Oklahoma. Have many friends from high school who now live in Black Dimond area. Thanks from writing and sharing this world with us.
