Couldn't think of a clever thread title, but hi!

I'm Sarah. I'm working on my first novel. I'm sure at some point I'll be asking for help figuring out which genre it's in, since "Non-Science-y Time Travel Relationship Story" doesn't seem to have a section in B&N.

I also have a full time job, a husband and young child, and the usual array of life-type stuff going on, so I should have a first draft by, oh...2020 or so!

I checked out a fair number of writing forums and AW definitely seems like one of the more comprehensive ones...I've come across lots of good info so far! I'm looking forward to being part of the community.

If you haven't checked it out already, Uncle Jim's thread helped me a ton when I was just starting. It's stickied at the top of the Novels forum I believe.

Welcome to the site!

Welcome to AW The five year estimate is fair given so many of your obligations, pursuedbybeer.
But you must persevere cause the time travel relationship seems like an interestng topic.

Occasionally after a v hard day I do feel like the beer is pursuing me...

I'm working my way through Uncle Jim's thread now! Good stuff.

Hello and welcome! I too am new to this site and just wanted to say hi. The bear is my spirit animal (long, but moderately interesting story there) so I too like your member name. Good luck on your journey and as a fan of all things "time travel-y" I look forward to getting glimpses of your story thread as time and opportunity allow.
