Hello, all. So, two years ago I joined AW, and never introduced myself. I think that's wicked rude, and I apologize. My excuse two years ago was my life: teenage boys needing to become productive society members, helping the sis care for our elderly parents, a full time physical day job (greenhouse grower, and I'm no spring chicken), a part time job that was mental (editor for Lyrical Press). I won't go on; Tons of you have lived a similar story. This week though, our youngest and sweet DIL moved out after three years with us. Just down the road, and we still get the calls about how to make meatloaf and bake a chicken, but Whee! FINALLY, I have time to dive into my WIPs, write and revise. They're the reason I became an editor and line ed: so I'd learn what editors wanted. Life is so good right now, and I have time glorious time to participate in AW. Thank you so much, and I hope any knowledge I have can be helpful to writers.
