Hey All,

I am a 35 year old man who lives in Maine. I have been writing for a little over two years. I use to be a marine mechanic before getting hurt on the job. Extreme tennis elbow coupled with carpal tunnel is a bitch. So I spent a year and a half out of work during which time I had endless hours to fill. A re-occurring dream spurred me to begin writing what has turned into a substantial book. Unfinished as of yet, I have since become gainfully employed selling Radiant heating systems. Time has become somewhat of a rare commodity with a full time job and a family. I am married and have two boys. So I plug along, writing where I can, and of course as many of you know new story ideas creep in so I am juggling several new projects. I have not entered any contests yet but plan to in the near future... if I can actually finish one. I am king of the unfinished projects...

Welcome aboard! This is a great place to learn...and argue.

Hey there,
Welcome to the forums. Have fun writing and reading! If you like doing the group thing, there are groups for Nano, WOTF, and Novel Writers...if you like it solo, the feedback sections are great.
