That's right: your writing life isn't over yet. You have a lot of talent, and I'm happy about the new wave of interest your creative writing has generated. The idea of compiling your latest stories seems great to me. What I don't quite understand is the title. Is it just me, or does it sound like texts that came to you thanks to the muses? It seems to me—this is just my opinion—that you should look for a title that relates to a theme present in all the stories. I don't remember much, and forgive me if I'm wrong, but there's quite a bit of science fiction in them. As for the trip, there are always reckless drivers. Thank God nothing serious happened. The video made me smile several times. If your mother enjoyed it, then everything else is a bonus. Hugs
