Espionage Exciting Mystery

My English teacher in high school was Mrs. Ellingson. She once commented how my class had "some good writers". I was not necessarily one of them at the time, but I enjoyed writing. Actually, I went on to become a nurse and worked in psychiatry and later home health and hospice. During my nursing career, I always spent time writing. As far as reading, my favorite genres were murder mysteries and espionage thrillers. After going through some personal struggles, I used writing to help deal with my stress and began writing my own murder mystery. I never finished that book, but besides releasing tension, the pages I did write proved to be an excellent learning experience. Years later, I began my recently published novel, First Assignment. Between my love of espionage thrillers and how deeply troubled I was becoming over the lack of integrity demonstrated by many conservative politicians, I decided to combine the two elements in my book. Then, January 6, 2021, happened, and my anger was piqued, as well as my writing pace. I finally finished the book in July 2022 and self-published it later that month. I have often thought about Mrs. Ellingson, wondering what she would think if she was still living and read my book. I hope she would give me an "A". Thanks for the outstanding educational experience you gave me, Mrs. Ellingson! Personally, I am married, and we have two amazing adult daughters. I retired from nursing and now spend much of my time writing--except when I am oil painting, watching baseball, or giving our dogs and cats attention!
