Hi there Dee.
Your life experiences sound intriguing.

I'm sure there'll be lots of articles that you can write. Before you start, though, just do yourself a favour and read the <./>writing-guidelines</.> to find out which forum will be suitable for your articles.
There is the edited guide, which has the PeerReview forum - this is for factual entries.
Then there is the <./>underguide</.> with the <./>writing-alternative</.> for stories, as well as <./>ThePost</.>, hootoo's very own 'newspaper.
And if you are around a bit, I'm sure you'll make many friends, this is a very nice community.
