I joined last November and often check out the new arrivals, sometimes I post a comment or two as well. I have self-published a book, "A crime worse than murder" and have tried to promote it in some of the forums available here. I haven't had a lot of success, but understand that this ende...

"Walking in the air" its the theme song from the movie "The Snowman". I love the piano version, just beautiful.

This is a great forum, interesting topic... should have gotten more posts! My user name has two sources and meanings, Liberty was the name of one of my favorite Dobermans, she was always by my side keeping me safe.

DWill... regarding your comment about "volunterrism" brings to my mind an issue that is fastly happening in this country, and that is "charity". It appears that our government believes it should be the charity giver (of course with our money) because we have somehow lost the abil...

Etudiant... again, I remind you that I am a simple woman and with that a quick reminder that nothing in this world is perfect, ie: our government.
