We've been lucky!

As I write this the rest of Canada is plunged into a deep freeze, also many of my friends in the USA are suffering through extreme cold. For some reason we've been really lucky here though, on this little strip of coast. No snow, and relatively speaking

It's Like Stepping Into a Deep Pool!

Oh, wow, sometimes going to a new writer's site feels like stepping into the deep end of a big pool. You imagine there's a deathly silence, as your writing is scrutinized. I guess the quickest way towards feeling more comfortable is to simply tell

Hi. I saw your comment in Hollyhocks100's profile page. If you still don't know the answer to your question - to follow someone, just go to that person's profile page. At the top, on the right side of the page, you can see a "follow me!" button. Just click it and wait for the page to load. Once it does, you will see that the button has been replaced with a "stop following" button. Hope this helped.
