Noticing Newbies

I was a member here back in 2004/2005, was quite active and had many friends. Then life got in the way, and I had to take time to get myself back on track. Now, of course, my username is no longer in the system, but I am back and hope to stick around this time. There are a lot of changes to Writing.com that I can see happened in the last 5 years, but I'll get the hang of it again and hopefully get back into my writing groove. Writing.com is how I got my fist story published in a magazine, and I'm hoping in time I can get a novel or two published as well. I'm happy to be back!
