    Welcome aboard, Ronie.

    I do feel a little nervous that you have a degree in psych. Promise that you won't analyze us...it could end up being a little scary if you know what I mean.

    Thanks, everyone! I am really excited to be here, too!
    I am grateful for this opportunity to join the wonderful Novel Journey team!

    Kelly - Maybe this will put you at ease--I'm not licensed to psychoanalyze. Of course, that doesn't mean I don't do it secretly. Mwa-ha-ha-ha!

    I think my degree in psychology has greatly helped me understand myself, people, and add depth to my characters.
