Well I write, but I am unpublished, though I will be sending out my
first submission at the end of the month (yea!)

I am a 26 year old county planner in the mountians of NC. I read a lot
of nevin, asimov, clark, donoldson, and any other science fiction and
fantasy writer I could get my hands on. For years I was a heavy
reader, but didn't write since I have dysgraphia, but after sloging
though and getting an masters degree, I relized that with much vetting,
I could write something decently good, and since I am a 20-something in
a area with no social life, I decided to sit down and write. After
about a year of tearing up what I have written, I now feeling good
enough to send stuff to short story magazines slush piles to see how it
goes, as now I avoid the really bad mistakes. (I do not pull the
mistakes pointed out by that humorious slush pile examples, for
example.) I enjoy my Science Fiction ideas, but Fantasy ideas come to
me more easily. this is the opening of the 5k short story that I will
hope to at least get to my beta readers this weekend. Hopefully it
will be more good then tripe (and hopefully Google Groups will post
this thing)

"Have you heard the wonders of Gerif?"
The merchant looked at the man asking the question, eyes going narrow.
The man before him was young, weathered by no more then fifteen
winters, tall, broad-shouldered, with a flair of red hair on top of his
head, and an unfashionably clean shaven face. Looking over the man's
attire, he could see the rope used as a belt, and snorted, another
wondering priest to annoy him.
