Hello, All. Although I have had an "identity" at IWS for a while, I have not been an actual participant. But now I finally have some news to contribute so here goes. I'm back in Sacramento full-time and am spending more time on my writing than I have been for a few years.

The children's book I started writing nearly five years ago ("A Whale Of A Tale") is now revised, published and available on Amazon.com and B&N: https://www.amazon.com/Whale-Tale-Bill-Kirk/dp/1951545230 . So, there's that. I'm still chasing how to best "get it out there" and have had a bit of success. But it's been a slow go.

Otherwise, I've been writing some poetry toward compiling a book's worth sufficient to publish. Coming along is the best way to put it. Glad to finally jump in here.
