A Little About Me

Hi I'm Marcia. I live in Montreal, and I work as an Administrative Secretary/Bookkeeper/Secretary/Slave. I have two children, a daughter aged 16 (although she thinks she's 24) and a son aged 11 (he thinks his sister is actually 4).

I enjoy reading and usually have at least 3 or 4 books on the go at any one time. I'm a big fan of Stephen King and recently Bentley Little. I'm also an avid knitter and have at least 5 or 6 projects on the go.

Current Obsession
PPing, CPing on DPC.

I absolutely love the concept of DP and consider any time I spend on here time well spent. (Even if my family thinks I'm nuts to proofread for FUN!). I enjoy PPing the projects with special needs (lots of illustrations, tables, indexes, multiple volumes, etc.) because it gives me the opportunity for challenge and learning. (I'm a pig for learning new things). I (so far) only do projects in English, however I have the basics of French (speaking anyway) and may eventually work my way through those.

I know that this is not really the forum for this, but I'm going to put it down anyway. Without the invaluable help from the PPVer's (tenaj, stacy, fvandog, greentea and Lostspaces are the ones that I've had the pleasure of dealing with at this point), I don't think I would be as successful or as motivated as I am, so THANK YOU!

If you are a PM who needs someone who enjoys PPing, and will give her best to the project please feel free to PM me Warmheart. (Sounds almost like a job application)
