Um...hullo!

:

eering around room tentatively::

I'm Sandy. Or Alexandra, if I'm being terribly artsy or speaking to my grandmother. Been in the US for ages, though I wasn't born here. Actress, teacher, mom, writer of chick lit/romance, no publication honors to speak of (though I'm hoping the word "yet" is applicable here).

I think those are the highlights. Looking forward to getting to know you lovely folks...

Welcome welcome, Sandy! We are glad to have you here! As an almost-newbie myself, I can already tell you it's a great place for writers.

Welcome to AW! This is the second day for me on this site and I already feel welcome. I hope you feel the same. In my short time here I have found most everyone on the site to be very helpful and kind.

Sandbar · Nov 30, 2013

Thank you, everyone, for the welcome and the suggestions!

Ullo Sandy welcome to the madhouse. Don't forget to attach the end of a ball of string to the homepage in case you get lost round the maze of forums.

Hi Sandy!

Come on in, the water's fine.

rwm4768 · Nov 30, 2013

Welcome. You should always apply the word yet to statements like that.

Romance/lit!

hey sandbar,
have you ever read Dr. Zhivango , now that's a tear jerking book.
I read the book years ago, and I saw the movie. If you don't have time to read the book, see the movie, you will not be disappointed.

especially if your into romance/lit!
