Hello everybody!

Lunabird · Oct 29, 2012

I've been lurking for years, but now that I've finished my first really serious manuscript and have begun sending out queries, I decided that I had better come out of the shadows. I've found some great advice here, and just knowing how many fellow writers there are has helped in and of itself. So thanks to all of you!
