writitng

Hi I am glad to see a forum for writers, yes I guess I could call myself a writer an ameture writer but a writer, I have written a few things , one is a poem about my son who is autistic, I did send it in to a poetry contest which was a scam as far as I am concerned, they wanted it to put in a book and I buy the book for $50 or some silly price, anyways be careful with these scammers.
I have written a childrens story for an assignment through this course I was doing correspondance, this was weird, still to this day I don't know if it was my story, it was about a baby dinosaur
that was lost, and a year later there was a movie that came out to the theaters called Baby about a baby dinosaur, so these courses that you here about through correspondance don't go for them unless there in a collage near by in your town, this one was in Connedicut I think. May not have anything to do w/ the course but it sure made me suspicous I dropped out right after that. So beware, I would love to do freelance if I had connections its hard to actually get published. Any ways glad to see this group, I will be back often, I also sell my own crafts that I make
