Hi, to all  My name is Julie and I'm from Melbourne Australia.  I'm a wife and mother of six kids- ranging in ages from 28 down to 9. I also have a 3 year old male Jack Russell cross who's name is Brodie. I guess you could say I have a toddler in the house again. I enjoy writing and hope to get a short story published one day. I guess like everyone I've got dreams.

The 4 younger kids all enjoy their tennis. Lessons and squad training during the week and competition on Saturdays and Sundays.

Thanks Collingwood08

    Hi, Collingwood08 and welcome to the StoryWrite website

    My username is gerifitzsimmons but most people just call me Geri in my circle of friends. Our site is a community of people who all share a common desire to write and hopefully become a published author sometime in the future. It is also a place to sharpen your writing skills and display your creativity while being in a fun environment! http://storywrite.com/home/guide/rules

    You will notice a gold medal by your name. This is a free trial membership. This shows you what options you have if you were a paid member of Storywrite.com. After approximately three days the gold membership expires, so take the opportunity to see all that our site offers to you.

    We have a new members group on the site.

    It is recommended that all new members to the site give serious consideration to joining a writing group as a method of assisting them in becoming an active member of the site. It is a great place to make new friends and get helpful critiques.
