Greetings!
Hi there, my name's Michelle O'Leary and I'm a writer. I just recently had my first novel published by DLSIJ Press, an epublisher. (see banner below )
I've lived most of my life in the northern US, but I'm such a wimp about cold that I now live in the sunshine state, Florida! I'm loving every minute of it and take every opportunity to brag to my cold-clenched family.
I'm an avid reader, but haven't had much time for it lately. If anyone has a good book suggestion, I'd love to hear it!

Hi Michelle I am a newbie here, too. My alter ego is EmmaPeel. I am a reader, not a writer. Nice to meet you!

Hello Michelle, and welcome.
I've read a exerpt from your novel and came away with the feeling that I would not like to meet your heroine in a dark alley whilst up to no good.
I hope it does well for you.
I moved from a comparitively cool part of New Zealand to the sub-tropicality of Brisbane in Australia. I'm a cold-wimp too.
Cheers

Re: Greetings!
Thank you both for the welcome!
Peter, your reaction to my heroine was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for visiting my site - I really appreciate it.
I do pay for being somewhere warm, though - to compensate for the balmy weather, Mother Nature has graced Florida with cockroaches the length of my middle finger (and that's kinda how I feel about 'em too ), spiders the size of my palm, and fire ants galore. Most of the time it's worth it, but when I'm lying awake at night because my fire ant bites are itching/burning like crazy, I have the occasional second thought!

Hi, and Welcome!
I'm sometimes JohnSteed, and I'm here with Lizzie/Emma. I will definitely go see what you've written, and I expect Lizzie will too. Hope to see more of you!
