Greetings.....Welcome to my place. For many years I have written, poems, short stories, and fanzine articles, simply, whatever I was in the mood to write.
The very first memory I have of someone reading my work was in the Fourth grade when my teacher, Mrs Iaccarino, had read some writing on paper bag that I was about to toss in the garbage, that paper bag had hung on our classroom wall for the whole year. I was proud, but embarrassed.
Over the following years I had taken numerous Creative Writing and English courses but only three times have I had the courage to send in work to be judged and published. So...here I am thinking that this could be the perfect forum to overcome my fear of my work being read by others.
I have to thank Mrs. Iaccarino, wherever you are, I hope you are still a teacher. Ms. Rosalie Accabbo and finally Helen Bescher, teachers who earned the respect and the honor of being called teachers.
I hope you enjoy....feel free to voice your criticsm and comments, I will enjoy hearing from you!
