Hi Veronica, I would like to join your Pub if possible :).
I’m writing from Japan as an ex-schoolteacher working as a research news information officer at a university. I came to Medium when a friend introduced it to me when I said I wanted to write to a non-judgmental audience as a form of self-therapy. (I don’t do Twitter, FB, or any social media besides Instagram for sharing pics with close friends and family.) I don’t feel I’m a good writer. But the people with whom I’ve become Medium mates have been so supportive that I at least don’t feel too intimidated by truly good writers. Just a tad. LoL. Anyway, please let me know (or not) if you think I could belong in the Pub. Whatever, the verdict, I’m happy reading the stories here! :D
