    Thanks, MomsBusy247, ajgodinho, and DecoratingforEvents! I really appreciate your visit and your kind comments! Writing is certainly a passion -- wish I had more time to do everything I'd like to write. lol. I need to be more involved with FWA - great to participate in local writers' associations (I tend to gravitate toward the online ones. lol)

    Jennifer, I'm wowed! I would like to read most of the lenses and other writing you have linked to. Unfortunately, since I started on Squidoo, it seems the only reading I get to do is lenses. I used to read books. Seemingly, you manage to do both. This lens definitely deserved that purple star. I'm looking forward to reading a lot more of your work.

    Hi Jennifer, Thanks for visiting my lens. You are very talented and I have been enjoying reading all the information on your lens.
    Also reading your bio I see that you live just up the road from us. We are normaly on St. Pete Beach! Small world.
    Currently in Spain trying to write another book.
    Will be back to try and learn as much as I can about writing and promoting my first book. I need all the help I can get :-)

  • rlmodranski May 9, 2009 @ 9:36 pm | delete
    I love all of your resources as well as your bio! I, too, started writing very young. My cousin and I used to take a book of wallpaper samples and write poetry about whatever the wallpaper inspired! (Kind of a weird game for a couple of 10 year olds!) I moved on to music and lyrics in my late teens, Bible Studies in my thirties, blogs about a year ago and now books - I've started publishing them here on Squidoo. It's been fun finding other authors here!
    Blessings!

Starts Today... http://www.nanowrimo.org A Month of Free writing is good for the soul and you might even end up with a Novella (50,000 words challenge).
