2. thank you so much. Writing has kind of been my "dirty" little secret for decades

I couldn't not write so I have lots of journals and essays and bits of short stories and lots of poetry, but I've shared practically none of it because I thought it was of poor quality and of no interest to anyone else.

I've always thought that my family history was interesting. On both sides are artists and well, titans of the business world. You wouldn't know their names but you'd know their products.

Your family history is of interest to me because I so wonder what the lives of people were like in the countries they immigrated from. And I think the Azores Islands are a very interesting place. Have you thought of doing more research?

Thanks again for your kind words.
