Thank you, dear @ruth-girl. 🌺
Sometimes, when I write a piece I have a particular reader in mind. In this case, I thought of you and some of the characters you have created in your stories. I had a feeling you would "get" Lois. We are all so complex, and imperfect, often hurting ourselves as much as anyone else.
Forgive me for suggesting this, but I think you should write. And I think you should polish your already-written stories, put them together with your new ones and make a compilation. This you can publish as a short story collection. If publishers don't want it, that's OK. You can publish the book on your own. Even if no one buys the book (I've been there!) it's still a great thing. Your family and friends will treasure it, and your kids one day will have it as a legacy.
I have published such books for myself, and for others. Cost absolutely nothing. Do your own formatting and cover art. Upload on Amazon (and Smashwords, if you want an ebook)
Hope I'm not being presumptuous. All that creativity needs an outlet :))
With great affection and respect, 🌞 🌟
Your mature, New York friend,
