Have you ever, half-way through a manuscript, felt like its not worth it ?
I wrote two books based on my family. I worked on them until they were almost in final draft. Then, for some reason I couldn’t finish them. I think the reason is that writing them was just a way [...]

I’m reffering to stuff you get from the grocer section and not from drug section. Such as, when I was a teen, I used egg whites on my face. As a child, my mother used mayo in my hair to condition. I heard tea bags help with puffy eyes.
