Hello to All,
My name is Greg Young and I'm a non-fiction writer. I don't write about how to clip your dog's nails, but I do relate to you how endure this existence. Refer to David Shields, Geoff Dwyer, Jorge Luis Borges and Thomas Farber.

All the best,
Greg Young

Greetings and welcome to the watercooler :welcome:

Take a wander around the various forums, there's lots to see and lots to learn, and even some fun threads too. Come along and pop on over to the Newbie Pub (at the top of the Newbie forum) and say hi, there's plenty of friendly faces that you can chat with and lots of banter. There's also the Question of the Day threads at the top of the Newbie forum where you can answer random questions.

Don't forget to read the newbie guide, and if you want to know what all the buttons mean check out this thread.

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.

Hey Greg - from a fellow freelancer! Fiction - the great American novel is my goal, but for 25 years I've been on deadline. Gotta eat, right?

Chocolate, compassion, a sense of humor, and an absolute refusal to compromise my integrity or ideals. I not only endure, I enjoy.

Welcome aboard. (-:

Hi and welcome, Greg!

Welcome to the forums, Greg. I must confess I've spent a year or so writing on how to clip your dog's nails or how to dye your hair... It was fun (500 words in 10 minutes) and the pay was good. But later on the pay got worse and the guy I wrote for expected 20 articles per day, 7/7 (he was Chinese). That was too much for me, so I quit.
