Joined September 29, 2011. No longer a newbie but still have much to learn. I love our Lord, art, music, nature and want to try to put some of it down in writing. I am always encouraged to find a site that wants to share its secrets. So, I hope I will stay focused and learn a lot. Join me won't you? November 11, 2024 coming back after being away for some time (update). I will probably focus mostly on poetry, but a few short stories I would also like to try. Stop by and say hi!
