I suppose I should have posted here sooner rather than barge straight in and start commenting on lots of people's posts and no doubt ruffling feathers a little :) But I am here now and saying hello.

I'm David and I live in the UK. Been writing for years but only recently to the extent of getting publishing nibbles. When not writing, it is my sworn and honourbound duty to corrupt the minds of the young with information that will warp thier fragile minds and turn them into mental clones of myself. Its a job I enjoy, especially when I challenge them with something really bizarre or I get to display to them the bloody lungs or eyes or heart of a domestic animal and explain how it work. What is even better is, the government pays me to do it. :)

Are you a teacher or a wierd secret government agent intent on subverting our children with biology? Welcome.

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. Most of the SYW areas require the password of ….vista. A word to the wise, (50 posts), 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.

Welcome and barge away. Corrupting the young is a worthy pursuit.

Thanks for all the welcomes. And I am currently a teacher but I was also a scientist as well - blood cell biology (though when I told people I spent most of my working day elbow deep in human blood, they tended to give me a funny look for some reason :) ). But teaching is fun too :)

LOL, oh that made me grin. Keep twisting their minds with knowledge and welcome to the forums.
