Hey CathyB, I think I'd enjoy buddying up with you.  First of all you have been to so many places.  I spent 16 years, in total, living in parts of the Middle East--Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Saudi Arabia.  I've also spent months in Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, France and Spain, and a wee bit of time in Ireland. I lived in Montreal and Toronto, Canada.  I've also lived just outside of Washington, D.C. in Vienna, Virginia.  I was born in Portland, Oregon and presently live in southern California in the Inland Empire.
          
          I will enjoy reading what you have.  Also we're in the same age group--OK, you're younger.  I'm 64.  My novel from my experience of NaNoWriMo is titled A HOLIDAY IN EGYPT GONE WRONG.  I've used some of my understanding and experiences within the novel.
          
          What do you think?  If you pop over to my section, you can read the synopsis and first chapter.  I put those up early in December as a place holder.  
          
          I didn't see your web site address above so please let me know what it is.  If you'd like to see what I've been doing these last 2 1/2 months you can check out my blog BOOKTALK WITH EILEEN.  I combined my love of reading -- all genre (almost) and writing.

Hi Eileen, sorry I didn't reply sooner; I was never notified by Wattpad that you had replied.  Guess I need to check in more regularly.  I look forward to reading your first chapter; I've put it on my calendar for tomorrow as I have to do my work before I allow myself to get too distracted by the many fascinating things online.  Once I get caught up in other things, the days tend to slip away without me getting my own work done! :-)  
            
            Maybe this weekend, I'll put up the first chapter of my novel.  It actually takes place during the sniper attacks in Washington in 2002-2003, so you may recognize some familiar things.  I look forward to reading your work and hopefully we can give each other some valuable and constructive feedback.    
            
            By the way, my website doesn't show in its entirety above, but if you click on the little green house icon, it takes you there.  I also signed up to follow your blog.  :-)
