Aw, thanks, sweets.

And I DID get a bit of inspiration from a story he told us about Kirk Douglas, who showed up at one of his seminars several years ago. He asked him why HE was there (he was in his 70s at the time), and Douglas said he felt like he "hadn't done enough with his life." As McKee said, "This was Kirk-effing-DOUGLAS." And he discovered, at that age, that he could write. And went on to write an autobiography and two novels, plus a short play at age 92, after struggling to recover from a STROKE.

So maybe it isn't too late, lol. Not for some of us, anyway...
