Hi everyone!

I've been hanging out for the past few weeks trying to learn about query letters and other tidbits. I decided to join this morning and see if I can't maintain an interest in my writing.

ME:
I'm a married man raising two boys in the Midwest USA. I'm well read in a variety of fields but love fantasy and scifi. I try to write fantasy with an eye towards grit but with a little wonder left to dazzle. I think I do a better job writing short stories of the Chicken Soup variety about my day-to-day job as a nurse in a busy ER. That is what I am pursuing for the time being.

Thanks, I look forward to becoming an educated writer.

Welcome. It appears that you have a good source of material for stories, between your job and your boys.

Crikey, don't become an educated writer. That will wring all the life out of your work. Be natural. And welcome to AW.

Thanks all!

I'll try not too become overly educated. Just enough that I don't embarrass myself so much that I refuse to show my face.
