gotawrite Profile

I have been writing stories, poems and novels for many years but am as yet unpublished ( have not yet submitted ) and am a lifelong avid reader. After retiring in 2002, I have completed a children's book and a novel which I am starting the process of 'literary agent hunting' of the novel within the next month. My mother wrote freelance and was published in news papers ( non-fiction life stories)and two of my sons have always been writers of opinion commentaries and poems. My preferences of reading are eclectic and I am hard pressed to pick a 'favorite book'. My business background is in the field of 'quality administration' and 'procedures'(national and internation); with experience in the writing of procedures, requirements,applications and compliances to those requirements with technical backgrounds. I am now into reading, writing, and athletic pursuits, as my 'aging' body will allow.
