Just stumbled onto this site and I like what I see. This is my very first post. I'm a cruiseaholic and post frequently on Cruise Critic, so I'm not shy. I have had a lot of my material published but never made the big score, yet. I know how difficult the literary world is with all the "good ol boy" clubs and like everyone else try to avoid the sharks that are always circling our world. I look forward to getting to know you and the help and advice I'm sure you can offer.

Welcome to AW. Hope you enjoy your stay with us.
How do you like your popcorn?

If you go to the bottom of the page to the 'forum jump' you can scroll down and find all the areas of this place. After you post 50 posts you can use the SYW areas to get help there. The password for some of the areas is…..vista. A word to the wise, it would be a good idea to participate first in helping others before you think about posting your own work. After you have been around here for awhile, then post something of your own for help. Good luck.

Texas will always be home... but dreaming of Hawai
Howdy, Patrick.
Very new to the lierarty world, but I can say that I've been swimming in the AW waters for a month or so and haven't seen any sharks yet ... seen a few big fishes, even spied a whale out of the corner of my eye once...
Welcome!

Hello!
I spent quite some time on Cruise Critic researching for my parents upcoming (first!) cruise. It was quite fun and made me wish I was planning to sail away as well. Anyway, Welcome and See You Around :hat:
