As the author of the message, I have to tell you that *I* didn't know what a
Lone Writer is, I only knew I am the only writer here and have been the only
writer at most of my jobs and I have a million questions but no one to ask.
I heard the expression somewhere, then asked someone from the Framers list
where I could learn more about it. I did learn all about it by asking the
question here! And yes, I am a Lone Writer and yes, I am feeling just
wonderful about having found this list.
As for understanding written English, did you read the messages yesterday
about the horse runs and the horse trots?

Subject: RE: Lone Writers Lists
I want to thank the list for enlightening me on what a lone-writer is. I
guess sometimes, a word, is just a word (i.e. there are no hidden meanings).
Even worse, I have been a lone-writer without even knowing it.
I will now put that pointed hat on, and wander over to the corner to sit and
reflect on my ability to understand written English. ;-)
