Even though I'm not a member anymore, I'll read it for the fun stuffies! Being an epileptic means my time on a computer is limited in case of fits!

Great! Is it sad that I can relate most of that to my favorite computer games? LOL!
Well done :)
Thank you! A computer game is a story, so I think it counts.
Woohoo!
Having "Happy Birthday"  nominated for a Quill Award took me by surprise. It really came out of the blue. Having this story actually win a Quill Award has me completely floored. I am honored and humbled and I thank all of you very much.

I have made a decision and, because of that decision, I will not be as active this year as I have been in the past. I'm usually good for a contest or two each month, plus I've taken many workshops. I feel as though I have almost reached the pinnacle of what I can do and it's not enough. I seem to struggle too hard at the basics. If I am to realize my dream of publishing one day I need to fix that.

I went to college for a year but my heart wasn't into it and I wasn't a very good student. Frankly, I was bored. I got an EMT certification and never looked back. That was many years and several babies ago. Those babies are grown now and I staring at 50 coming down the road pretty soon. I've decided to become a student once again.

Starting this summer I will be hitting the books hard, seeking a degree in English. Right now I'm boning up on my algebra. Some of it is coming back to me but most is a re-learning experience. Unlike 30 years ago, I am now an eager student and excited about continuing my education.

What this all means is I will have limited time to construct stories and poems. All my writing projects have been put on hold. The next four or five years will be busy to say the least since I will also be working full time. I will still maintain my account here and will be jumping in when I can.

I think this is the longest update I have ever written.

Well done on a positive decision for improving your life and hope you will have much success this time round. It's never to late.
Go get your dream Jimbo.

Yeah for you! I am 70 and I took a college course from the Institute of Children's Society in Pa. After over two years, maybe more I got my college degree with six credits. I was beside myself with happiness. You go for it. When you get older you really get into your studies. It means so much more to you.

God Bless,

Lynda with a Y
One more thing, you keep us updated and WDC proud.
This piece was nominated for a quill award. Please give it a read and tell me what you think. My intention is to publish it, so any and all feedback is appreciated. *Smile*

Farewell to thee, friend CSFS. It's been fun and challenging. I'm definitely looking forward to the new FSFS group.

Wait... Now what do we have here?
