Another interruption to Interruptions: Every now and then someone else writes an Interruptions. Literally, this has happened every now and then… or exactly twice in 218 Interruptions. Marlo has written both. Her other Interruptions (#187 – look it up at www.grantedwardsauthor.com) discussed suffering from a teenage perspective.
