I spent over 40 years programming computers before I retired a few years ago. 8 assembly languages, FORTRAN IV, JOVIAL, C, C++, Java, PHP... I did compilers, operating systems, device drivers. I found out the hard way that I'm not a project leader or software architect, although I can do smaller design work pretty well.
Now I maintain a few amateur websites (my wife's, my own, and a small non-profit I belong to), do whatever small projects strike my fancy, and write fiction that hardly anybody reads. Writing words was never my strong point.
