From dagdalorijane on literaryquotes:"And, in fact, this is the tale that I would love to write: history is such a romantic place, with its jarveys and urchins and side-buttoned boots. If it would just stay still, I think, and settle down. If it would just stop sliding around in my head." - Anne Enright.

I love that. Delightful. And so true. (And I feel that way about the topic I've set myself to try to start putting into paragraphs and chapters this week, as well. Every day brings new insight; at what point do I stop somewhere and get enough balance in order to make a beginning-point for the writing of it? A very good question.)

Beginnings and endings are always both difficult and exciting. Good luck!

Thank you. I am finding, again, that I arrived here just in time to help with some rather serious household stuff, and so it won't be till tomorrow night that I can begin on this. But, begin I shall. A start is all I need!
