Brief Author Bio:

While I am not new to writing, nor writing contests this is different for me. I have been writing "seriously" with intent as opposed to scribbling on any ole pad laying around, for some ten years not.

I am used to a weekly"board" format for writing contests. I was a regular poster for contests back when AOL had a writers site they hosted. I have earned bronze & silver mostly in the contests online. Won, one for which I received a blank journal and some soothing hand lotion for these weary hands and the hours spent hammering away on ye old keyboard.

I was actually talked into trying this by my husband of two and one half years an old pro here, Plantagent. He thought a little friendly competition at home might ignite some stimulating conversation.
