I suppose it was - 22 to 27 was a very "exciting" time for me

I used to think that if I hadn't written a novel by the time I was 30, I was done for. But now, I just go with the flow and see where life takes me.

I understand where you are coming from, especially where your comment about writing a novel is concerned!
It has always been my ambition to illustrate a copy of Edgar Allan Poe's works, or maybe a copy of "The Illiad" or "The Odyssey".
I still haven't done it, but I am working my way towards it, and hopefully one day it will happen
