I have recently started writing for other sources outside of my blog. Some sites allow me to reprint posts already written on my blog. Others require new pieces. This was the case with a site called "Two Drops of Ink" A site geared for offering writing advice and support for new writers. I am very proud to say that my submission was published today. I encourage you to check it out my post as well as the many other talented writers. You can find the link at the button below.

Thank you Two Drops of Ink!

My letter is an impassioned plea for love and compassion, not politics in creating this new legislature.
