You’re seriously questioning my credibility as a writer? Have you read anything I’ve written on Medium about writing? No? Thought not.

Tessa, I’m 83 years old. I don’t write books, I don’t write films, but I do write and I’ve been writing for more than 40 years.

I can’t believe I’m doing this because I sincerely don’t give a shit what you think, but this is a small part of who I am as a writer. (From my Linkedin bio.)

Now, please, just go away.
