Your warm welcome just graciously killed the out-of-place feeling in my bosom, plus, I had a little fun grappling with pronouncing your last name which almost reads English, even though it looks Russian. Here is how I lost the battle: Star, is he v sky? Couldn't form a concise sentence--something that would have clued me in on how it's pronounced--with it. So I shall call you 'Star, is he the sky?' for now.
Thanks, Jill. Your book looks terrific! I also like "My Very Own Book About Me." It's a workbook along the same lines as your children's book. I use it for my work with children and families in the foster care system. Glad to meet you:)
Thank you so much for your welcoming comments! They mean a lot when you join a new place!! Actually I wonder if you could point me in the right direction for some advice? I am a feature writer but I have been asked to write some press releases for a new hotel and I have no idea how much to charge? Could you or someone on this site help?
I'm horrified that I've just signed on to my profile for the first time since signing up almost a year ago to see your message. So sorry! I hope by now that your book has done amazing things!
Thanks so very much for your welcome! I am working on a first non-fiction book, so I would like to find a writing buddy who would read my Mss before I send it to editor. I am willing to read others' Mss in return.
By the way, I checked your website. Very moved by your book, and impressed by the short video clip. I am a pastor and a doctor of mental health with many years experience working with people sexually (and other abuses) abused in childhood. I applaud you for your tremendous work! Blessings to you, Saundra Taulbee
Thanks for the warm welcome. I was referred here by my friend Chelsea and have to still find my way around a bit. I have been told that I need to establish and online presence as that is something agents and editors are looking for in new authors. I have already connected online with many wonderful people I met at conferences. Sharing our trials and tribulations has been a true gift. For now, I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with Entangled Publishing or Agent Dawn Dawdle as they have both asked to see my ms. I also have a request pending from Penguin Books to send but am holding back in hopes of getting an agent first. Thoughts? Anyone?

Do you write things that make people disagreeable? Are your views in contrast to others in your circle? What do you do when you write a blog post that upsets someone, someone who may not usually read your blog but suddenly hears about your post and…See More

Thank you for your welcome! There are two bigger pieces of support I'm looking to give and get:
1. revising a large project tips, tricks, and processes
2. meeting English language writers (tough because I live in Germany)
Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!
Thanks Jill, I appreciate the welcome!

Hello Jill,
I appreciate the nice welcome. Hopefully, I will be an active member. Right now, I'm just trying to decide on a photo. Why is that so stressful?
