About Me
I am single but have a foster son. I used to work for a small publishing company as a proofreader among other things, so I spent a lot of my time correcting other people's mistakes, but please don't think I don't make any myself! In retirement I am the editor of a community newspaper.

News, sports items, short stories, poems, puzzles.
Writing Style
Not sure how to describe my writing style except I try to write factually, concisely and interestingly.
