Hello Tammy! My own favorite hobby is traveling around Arizona to engage in photography. I don't really have the money to go far so I've seen almost all of my home state.

Welcome aboard!

Hello all! I'm Amber

 

[dayhiker]

Hi Amber .. I need to get down there at some point and hike some more of the AT in VA.

 

[clementia]

Hi all..

I am new here. I live in Indonesia and work as a copywriter in a graphic design company. I just became a born again last year. For the time being attending a pentecostal church (Assemblies of God).

I think many things have changed eversince I became a born again. Especially my old paradigm, preferences, life's purpose.

I am still praying for a partner, and asking for wisdom and guidance to find the right person, because of course, I can no longer view a man with my old mindset.

It is great to find this forum. I hope we can support each other in our struggles and longings and find greater strength in our faith in Christ. God bless

Hello Amber. Welcome! I'm "old" here, but I've hardly spent any time in this forum (as proved by my meager number of posts).

So, don't count on me for tips, but it's always nice to be welcomed, I think.

God bless.

Re writing girls books: "someday?" Why not start today?

Find a Christian Writers club in your area, or on-line, these days. There's a lot of encouragement in the body of Christ.

Go for it!
