Hey everyone. I've finally made the plunge to start writing a book. Since my career has nothing to do with writing, I decided it would be good to nose around and see how other people do it.

Hey!
I just joined myself two days ago. Loving it so far, though I'm fearing it's a bit addictive.

Addictive is the key word in that sentence. I don't think I've slept much over the last couple of days since I joined as I try to soak in the massive amount of information available here.
So, welcome to AW! I hope you enjoy the stay.
Hands out welcoming drinks and snacks.
Thanks for the welcome. I won't have much time tonight to poke around but I'm hoping that tomorrow I will.

I work full time in addition to my other full time job--raising my kids. I write whenever I get a chance. My dream, like many of us, is to write full time but who knows when or if it may happen? Writing a book can be both agony and ecstacy but it's an experience like none other. Best of luck to you!

Welcome to AW fellow writer. Write every day, no matter what. Rain or fine, sad or happy.
