As do I. After all, we were all new writers at one time, and probably  
most of us had other writers who mentored and encouraged us. Being a  
firm believer in paying it forward, I teach writing workshops, mentor  
and encourage new writers trying to get going in the world of  
freelancing.

Something about this particular person, however,  doesn't come across  
as a 'real' writer but set off my spider sense.  But maybe because I  
just had a go-round with a student who was plagiarizing, I'm feeling  
somewhat suspicious and cranky. Maybe the wind blew my Pollyanna  
bonnet off.

cheers, jodi
