I have this irresistible urge to write, in case nobody noticed. I have a fledging Swedish blog under a pseudonym I won’t tell you about, but I finally decided to use Facebook, not just to keep in touch with my family in Sweden and my children, but for people who want to know what’s up in my life. So, under my own name, I do write things about my life, my pets and reflections that don’t fit on A Country Doctor Writes. But, as I wrote in one early post, I don’t want to be friends with a gazillion people because I really don’t have the space to read lots of updates. If somebody wants to know what is going on in the private ruminations of this country doctor, it’s there.
I just realized none of the posts show on an iPad or a computer, but they do show on an iPhone. WordPress is working on this. In the meantime, please visit my Substack.

A Country Doctor Writes: 
But I do like for people to buy my books. 2 starter links on Dykers.com. Plus one I know you can use: “How To Be A Happy Former Smoker(Even If You Don’t Want To)”. It contains some very helpful insights for my fellow physicians as well as for patients.
You can set up ‘follow’ on Facebook.
People will not be your friends but can see your posts.
I really don’t know anything about Facebook but I see people following me even without me excepting your friend request
