Hello, virtual friends and Fastlane Forum readers and contributors... for years I have started and never finished what I started to write about my past experiences.
1987 was the first time I start to gather my thought and went into writing.. I wrote in notebooks, too many to keep track of what I was writing, and in conjunction with moving several times, the notebooks were gone with the wind.

Then 1997 came along and again I start writing, this time as blog posts, and after a few years of publishing it, the Internet Service provider decided to delete my account and so I lost everything that I wrote till that date.. yes, they deleted my account after me paying for lifetime membership... I guess, they found it was not a good deal and so they delete all accounts and wanted people to start fresh and pay monthly or yearly.. I was notified too late and so never went back with them.

Since losing the blog post, I start on and off to write again, but it never went more than a week or so, and then forgot about it.

In 2009, a friend wanted me to do an interview and I said to myself, well, this probably will instill me to start writing again and finally finish the life story.. no, it did not happen... here is the interview link if you care to listen or read... Oral History of Nick Catricala

The above videos sparked some inspiration to write again.. but did not materialize.
Then in 2014, I was asked if I like to participate and publish a story in a book with others, the Adventures in Manifesting series, and I participated with one part of the life story...
A Lifetime Commitment
After that, and of I reviewed and or edited and or wrote more, but as before, nothing was done to truly write the full or complete story and publish it in some medium.
Last week I was introduced to Angelo Bolotta, and the "Transformation Project", which inspired me to once again revamp the thought of completing the life story and publish it... About Us : TRANSFORMATIONS
I contacted Angelo and he agree that my story is interesting and invited me to write part of the story that reflex mostly on the life of an immigrant... we are now in the process to formulate it and publish in a book with 100 stories.. this will be the second book, the first one was already published earlier.
Thank you again and please connect if you feel that we can work together to make the story shine as it should.
Well, going back for the reason I am writing all this... Can anyone help me to keep writing, writing properly since my formal education is not up to standard, and possibly help me publish it in some manner that will benefit others from reading my story?

Of course, this may not be a good way to ask, and if someone finds it not suitable, please forgive me, I did not know any better at this time...

Thanks for reading the whole message and for your interest.. please get in touch if this resonates with any of you.. it will be very appreciated.
