Highlighting Newbie Bio-Blocks Hi, In continuing the new tradition, {an oxymoron}, I wanted to share with you these Bio-Blocks that impressed me so that you might also get to know the people in our community better. Again, I would like to stress that I came across many many Bio-Blocks that were still empty. Please take the time to write a few sentences that will give your readers some hints about your work or the focus of your work. Remember that you can always change your Bio-Block as the mood suits you, as long as it is kept G-rated. Here are some Newbie Bio-Blocks I found interesting and/or entertaining. Please give them a read and consider posting your own "welcome mat." ~~~Say hello to~~~ randyk1967 A writer who believes the old saying " we are only as good as our readers deem us to be". Razz This author tells us about how personal her writings are to her. Bellerophon Simple and to the point. meri The author has put out her welcome mat. Give her a visit and drop a line or two. Next I want to say Congratulations to the winners of the contest. It was wonderful meeting you all, and learning a bit more about what you like, what you write, and in some cases where you live. Please don't forget to enter the next contest: "Invalid Item" . It sounds like a lot of fun. Hope you take the time to come on in. I remember very well the warm feeling I got when I "arrived" here. I felt I had finally found the place that I could write without worry, get honest reviews, help when I needed it. What I also found out was this became the place I wanted to stay. I made friends quickly, learned more than I ever thought I could, and my confidence has soared. I want to welcome each and every one of you and list some of the fun and helpful sites that I found then, and still visit to this day. By staying active here my friends, each day is like being a Newbie, in that you will find jewels hidden everywhere, each time you begin searching. I encourage you to visit these sites, don't be shy, and ask a question or two. If you have advice, please share it. That is what a community is all about, after all!
A perfect place to drop in an item or two for review.
Always welcoming any New Writer on the site.
Always open, every helpful! Have fun. Until next time my friends, amawitch In keeping with my original plan, I have decided to showcase short stories of any genre today. I found myself immersed in so many different types of stories. It was a pleasure to read all of the talent here on Writing.Com. I am sure you will enjoy the following selections as much as I did. As always please remember that encouragement is always appreciated, a fair and honest review is the only way that any writer can improve.
