Thank you to anyone who stops by for a chat.  My interest in being on Wattpad is to share feedback on our mutual stories and/or to share my process as I write my novel.  I'd ask that if you're posting on my feed that you keep the posts to those topics.  I'd prefer posts without links as I don't have the time available to check them all myself.  Thank you for your support of my novel and I look forward to reading yours.  Scott :)
