Hey there, everyone! I'm so excited that GS is back! I happened to look at my old email associated with this account by fluke and saw the message from Andy. I had almost completely forgotten about how great this site was. As it turns out (I had to check), I've had this account since '14 and also remember guest observing a while before that, and I always appreciated how welcoming and respecting the forum was/is. I, both directly and indirectly, received a lot of very good advice, and I do credit this site and its members for getting me through some not-so-wonderful moments.Â
Since 2017, I have experienced a lot of change in my life. Some of you might remember that (if you do at all) I am from New York; however, I moved to Canada to start living with my then boyfriend (now fiancé). I was even approved for permanent residency a couple months ago. In that time, I also completed my master's degree in English literature and have continued my quest to write books and get published, mostly in the YA urban fantasy and historical fiction genres - though, admittedly, maintaining motivation has definitely been tough these days (as I'm sure a lot of you can probably relate). Since graduating, I've been teaching writing and grammar courses to first-year uni students, and I've really been loving that experience so far. Also, since '17, with the help of my wonderful partner, I also came to terms with identifying as homoromantic ace. I thought it was worth mentioning as a followup because this forum helped me so tremendously on my journey towards accepting my same-sex attraction in the first place.Â
So yeah, I'll cut off my little reintroduction here. I'm always looking to chat with fellow creatives, old friends, and anyone really, so I hope to see you all, members past, present, and future, around.Â
 Stay safe!
