Hi all --

Glad to be here and thought I'd say hi. I'm a marketing and communications exec in the Washington, DC area who's been writing fiction off and on my whole life -- but the last few months started to get serious about it again for the first time since graduating college in 1991. (Got caught up in the ol' career and thought writing was something I would do "later" then woke up one morning in a cold sweat and realized that it was now "later.")

Have taken a few classes, written a couple stories, and now working on my first novel (my thing is mystery/suspense though I have eclectic tastes). Looking forward to participating and learning from others here though it may take a while for me to get the hang of things.

Anyway -- thanks to all for creating such a great resource for writers!

Behind you!
KWHolland, sometimes a traumatic event can wipe out your memory leading up to and immediately following the event.

We all know who you are and why you're here, but it seems both wise and kind to break it to you slowly, in small increments, over a period of months. By then you'll like it here so much you won't realize we bopped you over the head and dragged you in while nobody was looking you slipped on a banana peel.

You saw it was AW and you thought it would be nice to have some root beer.

Why are you here? For the popcorn, I assume.

Welcome to AW, where you'll find much more than popcorn.

You are the alpha and the omega. You are here because we serve beer instead of purple kool-aid.

I'm glad that I could clear those issues up for you. Carry on.

(P.S. Welcome home!)
