CONGRATU-DAMNED-LATIONS, Daughter!!! I love your writing and may I say -- these beautiful creations in this post are OFF THE DAMAED CHAIN!! I SO enjoy your writing (the fact you're from a military family like the one I helped create or the ones I saw growing up in SC with the Navy Base as the major employer of Black folk) -- and as a Black woman I SEE YOU!!

Forget that whole, "You need to have written X-amount of articles" bull shit -- YOU, Dear-heart, ARE a WRITER!
