Louise Burger

I am a 52 year old woman who has never known what to do with her life. In the process, on reflection, it turns out that I've done so much and have lived full life. Sometimes life sweeps you away and as a result, I have ended up sitting opposite psychiatrist, who told me to write my life story. I agreed (well, I was agreeing to everything he said) but when I got home, I realised that this was not the two page essay, it was going to end up being a book. The needs to write this life story was reiterated by my psychologist a few months later except she said that I should write a book because it could be an inspiration to people who need it. Thinking it's through, I figured that it shouldn't be all that difficult. After all, it must be in my genes since my father is a well-known journalist and writer
It is now four months later and I am yet to put a pen to paper. It feels like there is a huge mountain to climb. How do I untangle my thoughts? And so, here I am, excited and ready to learn.
