Tributes to Writing.Com

Five years ago, a cross country trip led me back to Michigan to (once again) start over. Writing was all I had left. I was living in a trailer park on the decidedly wrong side of the worst side of the tracks, had no job, no money, no self esteem and no joy in my life. At the lowest point, I found this really cool writing site. WDC let me have a place where I could practice the one good thing I had left. Lo and behold, I made friends and got solid feedback. The shine peeked out from behind the clouds. I turned yellow and the sun shone. I found a job and a better place to live, all the while pouring my heart out into my writing. I made special friends (you know who you are!) and became confident in not just my writing, but in me, in my life and in everything I did.

WDC was the catalyst that got me living again, and for that, I shall be forever grateful! Happy 10 years to the BEST writing site online. I've spent a very happy five years of it with you and will spend the rest of my life here!

Pretty darned good job, SM and SMs...you give the party, but WE get the presents all year round!
