Congratulations on your placement!

I followed your link from AW. Are you still out in western Pennsylvania? I grew up in Johnstown. Small world. Now I'm in the Philly area.

Good to see the Pennsylvania writers represented!

Thank you, Jason. Yes I'm still in western PA. I live about 30 miles north of Pittsburgh. My oldest daughter lives in the Philly area. She's in Mechanicsburgh. Nice to meet you.
