“She was a loner who loved company. The contradiction was reconciled in her letters...” Those words were written about Hemingway’s wife, Martha Gellhorn, and I think they could be said about me too. I like company and I like solitude and I like keeping company in letters. I love to cook and bake. Cooking a good meal, sharing food, gathering people around my table is another way I like to keep company. Besides writing letters, I also like to write in my journal and I enjoy calligraphy and other creative pursuits. I love taking walks, the beach, history, old churches, and reading.
