You’re clear of any criticism. I don’t see any manuscripts poking out of all that “stuff.”

Don’t overlook rented storage space.

Actually, the move has been shockingly easy. The hard part is finding a place for everything. But I love the idea of weather – since we don’t have any in SoCal. I’m always up for a new adventure.

Thanks for your kind comments!

Sounds like it’s been a tough move for you, especially to a completely different environment and from West to East. Wonder how long it will take to adapt.

Love your comparisons and the amusing way you link writing to your move, to finding space, or your penchant for buying purses, I agree about those writers, especially of memoirs, who overload their books with everything that ever happened to them; the chapters from heaven or the “little darlings” that some writers hoard like treasures – and aren’t we all hoarders of a kind? I have my Discards file and my every version/draft/etc.files as how can I bear to part with them? – and,that back story that is too important to be left out even when it doesn’t go with anything else or distracts from the overall story.
