Hello from Me
Hello to all! I don't usually put the cart before the horse but I took a deep breath and actually posted something for feedback in the "Critiques and
feedback" forum and it was kindly suggested I introduce myself first....hmm that could work.
I've been a member here for at least a year or so silently observing, reading posts, etc and "thinking" of participating - some of you feel like
friends to me already and I apologize for holding back myself 
I write to express myself - always have and always will; wrote novels for letters, poems to wade through the growing pains and more recently through
wonderful friends I've met on the internet, I've become a word-smith for self-development and empowerment.
I am a wife, mother of three young adult daughters and work in sales and marketing on a part time basis. The rest of my time is spent on creative
blogging and coaching people I've met on line in their network marketing businesses for free. My joys come in giving and if something I've written
helps another I'm doubly blessed.
So for today, that's who I Am. I'm pleased to meet you all and look forward to keeping this door open! Have a lovely day.

Welcome to the board! Thanks for telling us more about yourself...I'm glad you came out of hiding. 
I’m sure you’ll find us to be a warm, friendly, helpful group…oh, and fun, too!
Something you might find really exciting here is that we have short story contests with cash prizes and publishing contracts in our print anthologies.
It’s a great motivator to get you writing, and we all cheer each other on.
Here’s a thread you should definitely visit as soon as possible—it tells you all about our contests on the board, other opportunities for submissions,
cool features of the board and more! It'll also tell you about secret, private parts of the forum not everyone can get to without permission, and how
to access password locked sections of the board as well.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask... if I can't answer it, someone else probably can!
Enjoy your stay! Keep writing!

Welcome out of hiding! I did much the same, just jumped in and it took me
awhile to realize that I hadn't introduced myself.

Haha, welcome!
I did just the opposite. When I found this board, I put on my swimsuit and dived in. Been that way more or less ever since here. I love it.
Glad you piped up!
I seemed to be looking down from an immense height upon a twilit grotto, knee-deep with filth, where a white-bearded daemon swineherd drove about
with his staff a flock of fungous, flabby beasts whose appearance filled me with unutterable loathing.
