Hello, Newbie here!

Sunflowers light up a country setting!

I have read so much about this site that I had to sign up and give it a try. Naturally no site is perfect and we out here in the writing world are always looking for new places where we can share our thoughts, ideas and dreams. I may be a newbie to this site, but I'm an oldie in the writing game. From Associated Content to Yahoo to the "B" word to several other sites that went defunct to Persona Paper to here. I heard lots of Persona Paper writers are here, so if you know me speak up and say 'HI'....I'll be looking for you! I love to write reviews on restaurants, since I'm into food! I also love to write about my garden and my yellow lab, (Ruby) and my quiet life in the country. For now, I'll say hello to all of you and start this new journey.

I am still with all those sites, I still check them out and leave comments and sometimes even write something, so is your handle the same on Persona Paper? I'll look you up.

@AbbyGreenhill You can post as much as you want, there is no restrictions. No, there is no word count, but the guidelines do say in the earning department, the discussions should be meaningful or some such? Basically they suggesting to try and draw interest to your discussions so there is interaction.

I guess the main questions are: How many times can you post in a day? and I didn't see anything about word count? I'm just putting stuff out and hoping I'm doing it right!

@AbbyGreenhill I'm not always good with names either, but I recognised your face. There were quite a lot of South Africans at Bubblews, but I haven't come across any of them here yet.
