amber m’s Summary

I have been writing on and off for what seems like forever. I have started to concentrate on really writing as opposed to thinking about writing. Has this helped me thus far? ...ask me next year.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts, but this amounts to nothing more than a piece of paper that says I managed to waste a few more years of my life. As the joke goes; "What does someone with a Bachelor of Arts say to you?..."Would you like fries with that?"

amber m’s Specialties:

Published articles have been limited to a couple of short stories and some advertising items.
