Additional Information: "I once took a SF writing class from Suzette Hadyn Elgin, author of The Communipaths and At The Seventh Level. I flunked out (withdrew, actually) before finishing my story about an automated house of the future."

Introduction: Hi! I'm another virtual member. I'm a full-time technical trainer and part-time non-fiction writer. My interests in SF tend toward the classics: Asimov, Bradbury, Clarke on down to Zelazny.
What sort of stories do you write? And if you have anything published, tell us about it (even if it's not SF.) We love to hear about all your successes.: I write technical articles for TechRepublic.com, one of CNet's websites. My focus areas are databases (Oracle and SQL Server), Change Management, Project Management, and self-employment.
What brings you to the SF Writers Meetup? Is there anything that you hope the group will do for you?: I'm attracted by the writing resources compiled here, and the ability to learn about the business side of writing even though our genres may be different.

“ Hi Bob:
I just became the Organizer of the German Language Meetup Group in Summerfield, NC and I wanted to thank you for your RSVP advice. I just moved from Plano, TX and I am GLAD that I finally see fall colors around here again. ”

“ I thought he was in Bellvue, WA. I had thoughts of trying to hook up with him when I visit family up there again (even though they're not in Bellevue.)

Okay, testimony- Bob maintained a cool and calmed many down even when the abrupt meetup.com fees arose.
He approaches things as positively as possible. ”

“ Bob- Always insightful, helpful, and witty. Never a boob. Well, almost; I think that sombrero might be a bit boob-ish. ;) ”
