I'm a photographic artist, writer/editor/publisher, and founder of the Aperture Aside Photographer's Web Hub, which exists to offer resources to photographers of all genres through the many spokes of our web hub, and Photographer's Journal.

I have another account here at Shoutlife that also exists for offering these free resources to photographers, Aperture Aside Photographer's Photographer's Web Hub: http://www.shoutlife.com/profile_view.cfm?uid=155583.

If you're a photographer, check out the Shoutlife group, Photographapher's Resources too.

I'm happy to be here and look forward to making many new friends. Following is a short business bio. I know resume's are stuffy and impersonal, but it does contain a lot of info, if you're interested. If not, skip the following:

I've been freelancing since the latter 70's. My first novel, Chase the Wind, Thomas Nelson 1983, was published before I was 30. The second novel, Rightfully Mine, was published by Thomas Nelson in 1986.

I enjoyed freelancing throughout the 80s with articles and how-tos, and wrote columns for three national crochet magazines, while writing three columns reviewing software, also for national magazines. I was featured on the cover of The Christian Writer Magazine October 1983.

After teaching at writer's conferences throughout the Midwest, from Kansas to Chicago to Minnesota, I founded/directed the 3-day Mid-America Fellowship of Christian Writers conferences for four years until 1990.

I am currently the Publisher/Editor of the Aperture Aside Photographer's Journal, and founder of Aperture Aside Photographer's Web Hub. http://wwwaggiev.org.

Aperture Aside is a new and rapidly growing organization existing to offer resources to photographers of all fields. We are a hub with many spokes and many to come in the near future, including the Aperture Aside Online University.
