“While it’s true that I’m related to one of the most celebrated families in America, it never opened many doors. In fact, fame is such a fickle fellow that more people know the reality TV star of the moment than my distant relatives.
However, I have hope. Sometimes I dream that my many-times-removed cousin plans to follow in her father’s footsteps. I’d work for her!”
I take photos. I write. My volunteer job is taking photos of rescued dogs and cats transported by the rescue group whose records I manage. Since working and volunteering don’t leave me a lot of time to write, I’m spending 2017 borrowing from what these dogs and cats are writing. They said it’s okay.
