Hi from Florida!

Reddog23 · Dec 5, 2012

Hi everyone,
Somehow I stumbled upon this site while looking for something completely different. Works for me! I am pretty new to this field and basically joined to gain knowledge about having a novel published. I finished my first work and self-published it in September. It's doing well and getting great reviews. Now that I have my courage up a bit I am looking further into it as more than just a hobby.

Welcome, my fellow Floridian! This is a great site to stumble onto, which is exactly how I found it. I'm pretty new to the whole biz, too, and just had my first book published in July. This site played a HUGE role in that process. Hope you enjoy it here as much as I have!
