Hello all! I've been working on a novel in the in-between hours of life for the past 10ish years or so, and I've finally decided to settle down and take it seriously. Because, well, it's actually getting pretty good! So I thought I'd start with making some connections with fellow writers out there, and see what tidbits of wisdom I can gather from those of you more seasoned than myself, so, pretty much everyone. Excited to meet meet you and see what this place is all about!

Haha thanks! I'm excited to see what I've stumbled upon.

I read the synopsis to your "Skin Deep" book. It sounds really good! I will be adding it to my Goodreads and reading it ASAP.

Hello and welcome. AW is a tremendous resource. I've learned so much here, and it's wonderful for me to have a place to talk about craft and process (which I really can go on about at great length if anyone lets me). Enjoy!

Hello and welcome! Great to have you! This site is great for advice. I'm also looking for some myself, so hopefully we'll both find what we're looking for! Good luck to you!
