I am excited to find a website that is so interesting to log onto. I have been writing since I was 15 years old and a sophmore in a High School in Amarillo, Tx. I have written poems for many years also. I have written a short story that is in the process of being re-written into a full novel. It is taking a lot longer than I expected. Sometimes I think I just need to take a vacation up to Colorado somewhere and hide for 7 to 10 days and write my guts out!
