What makes an author write

[Tom]

Hi all
If anyone wants an honest interview from an author of multi genres then give me a shout please.

I started writing when living on Catalina Island, doing a weekly article for the Catalina Islander Newspaper for 21 years. After retiring as harbormaster, I had a story to tell, and I did in my memoir, 'Between Two Harbors, Reflections of a Catalina Island Harbormaster'. After it published, I went to work on a novel, a seafaring adventure that incorporated some of my sea-going experiences into a story about a young couple looking for a change in their lives. It changed their lives forever. @ dougoudin.comBetween Two Harbors: Reflections of a Catalina Island Harbormaster

Hi Doug

Well, they do say write about what you know and you've certainly managed that,
