I read that same article. So sad. I agree, Rollin would take care of you for sure. I think my Dad would take care of Mom too; he can be surprisingly good in a crisis. (We joke that he stresses out over small stuff so when larger stuff happens, he's basically ok).

Glad you've done that too, with downloading a book when it feels right!

Yeah that was so interesting for Mary Pipher - she got what so many writers dream of, more than one best seller. But I can totally see where the constant travel became awful.
