Shift here from second person to first person.
I was working part-time for the KSF until March 31st of this year (2024). I was retired from April 1st to today (July 5th). I came out of retirement to write a book. I never got used to being retired. I expect that it will take the rest of my life to get my book published. I remain a volunteer on this project and strive to not out-live my welcome. But my book comes first.
