Trying This Out Again!

Now that I am actually retired, I want to spend some time writing, both for fun and profit! I've had about six months to adjust to retirement, and I am somewhat ready to get back in the game of work! To that end, I signed up to accompany a friend to iPad training next week, and have been approached about a possible class to teach later this spring.

I love writing humor, I would like to try children's books, both picture books and chapter books. I am a reading teacher by trade and would love to begin the Great American Novel (a couple of scenarios are floating around in my head right now!). I enjoy writing poetry (mostly the rhyming, structured kind) and a few years ago won the best poem among faculty/staff at my school (the prize was bookmarks and some candy, I believe). I will post one of my poems along the side of the page one of these days.

Outside my occupational interests, my husband and I are boaters on Lake Erie. Other activities I enjoy are reading (go figure), gardening, walking and computing. Please watch this spot to see how quickly I get going with my project!
