About This Newsletter

Happy New Year! May this be the year for you. *Smile* and every one of us! *Bigsmile*

Welcome to this issue of the Noticing Newbies newsletter.

I thought I would give more information on things to check out that you may enjoy and maybe help you get involved with places and also places that are just for newbies.

This newsletter is about and for you. And for seasoned members too, I hope you'll find something you can take from my ramblings and what I share. *Wink*

This newsletter's goal is to showcase our Newbies here at WDC in a wide range of different
kinds of items to enjoy and give the Newbies some tools and items to help them along the way, as well as other places for them to check out and maybe join in or just explore.

Letter from the editor

Hello! How are you? I'm so glad you're here. *Snow4*

I want to welcome all Newbies to our wonderful community of WDC and this newsletter. *Reading*

I hope that you will enjoy yourself and write your hearts out too. I have been here at WDC for many years now and it really is my second home, which means there is no other place I'd rather be! *Inlove2*

There are a lot more goodies here now than when I first came here, don't get me wrong there were good goodies when I came along too but every year come September 1-7 we will celebrate WDC and they give us many more good! *Inlove*

This newsletter is about and for you. And for seasoned members, I hope you'll find something you can take from my ramblings and sharing...
