Hello to all. I am new here (How many times have those words been typed in this space? ), so this bio block wil no doubt be revised many times in the future. My name is Rod. I am an avid reader and perhaps may have some small skill as a wordsmith. As with any creator though, I am often too close to my creations to be objective. Perhaps in this forum, I may receive that objectivity. I look forward to interacting with many new friends here. See you in the ink. Rod
