Writing weekly stand-alone stories to your grandchildren (or nieces/nephews) is just plain fun. You become their teacher, coach, historian, partner, mentor, and inspiration. You take a lot of pictures and you pay great attention to details to make your stories more comprehensive and entertaining. You publish your stories at a local printer every December to make Christmas books for each of your grands and their parents. Before you know it, you've "accidentally" written your awesome autobiography.
