Well done, Sheila! I am in a very similar position: my book (a memoir of my childhood) will be published next month! Will send you a private message on FB…and will read your stories…

Carissima! Congratulazioni!! I'm so happy to have crossed paths with you and your family during your sojourn in San Francisco, though it was bound to happen somewhere in the world given the many points of connection we have! I will continue to connect with you virtually through this newsletter and IRL around the world! A presto!!

First of all, I truly enjoy reading your work. I appreciate the honesty as well as the clear talent sharing your life. I will always marvel that one day while sitting with a dog in that French cafe in Carmel by the Sea after just having moved here I met you and your husband. Shame we never met again as I really wanted to meet that dog of yours. Dog hair aside, there is absolutely nothing more joyful and grounding and eternally loving as a dog. I shall subscribe happily and share! Oh! and by the way, when we met I was 58. I just turned 68. Trust me…all the things we worry about fly in and out. Relish it all….it just keeps getting better! ❤️

Continua così Sheila! Non vedo l’ora di avere la dedica sul tuo libro ( sono certa che un editore intelligente ti pubblicherà )

Carissima Sheila, che notizia e che incredibili sono talvolta le coincidenze !!! Ieri passeggiavo con Anna e Gino e mi sono ritrovata all'incrocio di Vallejo Street con Pierce Street ... mi è venuto improvvisamente in mente il commento che tu feci con me qualche anno fa (ainoi) sulla pronuncia "sanfrancischese" del tuo cognome (nonché nome della via) rispetto a quella a cui sempre sei stata abituata .... ti abbraccio.

I love you, Sheila! I’m thrilled that you are doing this. I support you 100% I’m so happy. You are an amazing writer. This is your own special thing. I know that your writing will touch many people, maybe make them feel like they are not alone, entertain them, and very likely teach them. I’ve always admired your kindness and grace. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Give Zaby and the kids hugs for me.

Love,

Annie
