Written word

I began my writing career at the age of 14 when I wrote an astronomy book (see image).  Fortunately, my skills have improved considerably (not so much on the penmanship) over the years as I wrote research articles, technical articles and books.  I wrote fiction back then too, but that will stay in the file cabinet.  

First page of an astronomy book, written in very sloppy sursive, when I was 14-years old.
