An old guy imerges

[waterpoor]

I have been writing since computers ran by hand cranks. I have studied writing and am still not sure what makes a poem a poem or a story a story. I've been published some and have two novels languishing on a cozy corner of my closet.

I write a lot of Vietnam and war stuff but also things my life is about today. Have no idea if I will fit your forum but will try it. I like strong critique of my work and try to do a lot of commenting on others.

Does no profanity include gosh darn and heck?

Welcome, Waterpoor. The Vietnam war era was an interesting one. Why not post links to some of your writing in the Promotions section. And "gosh," "darn," and "heck" are just fine. :-) If it were up to me there would be nothing out-of-bounds at all. But I'm afraid we have to abide by Proboards TOS. Hope you'll be happy here.

I’m sure we’ll find way to get around it Waterpoor.
Welcome and blast me what you got! Papa’s got a brand new bag.
