Ah, thankfully novelist was my number one,

took a while though.

Again, I worked for a couple decades nearly,

and at some point it really wasn't my goal

to become a novelist anymore.

I loved my work at the time developing software

and then I went back to it.

So, I think the thing I'd say to people is

sometimes it's a very circuitous path.

I mean, I wouldn't change it in hindsight

how it happened.

I mean, I finally got to my dream profession,

but the journey was enjoyable too,

and that's what I would say.

It was definitely novelist,

I think really only that.
