In the monthly 5 Fun Questions interview I do over on my author Substack, fabulous Meghan Nesmith asked the question in the subtitle:

At what age did you feel most like yourself?

I saw someone (it may even have been Meghan) saying for a lot of women, it was 22. I had no idea who I was at 22 (which is troubling considering I got married at 24).

My first thought was now. I feel most like myself now. And more and more all the time.

Me, yesterday, showing off the Prosecco we won in a pub quiz last week.

But last night I had a dream and as soon as I woke up, I knew I wanted to write about it.
