Hi,
I am a new member. The reason I joined this group is because I'm a struggling writer, and I've decided that to become a GREAT writer, one has to have really GREAT hair. Think about it ... Mark Twain (wild white mop and luscious mustache), Shakespeare (a virile Vandyke), Charles Dickens (those coy curls), Lord Byron (what tempting tresses) ... I could go on and on. After studying the masters, I decided the only difference between them and the ordinary scribbler is HAIR -- all the GREAT writers had GREAT signature hairdos.

So, here I am. I lay my locks at your feet. As soon as I can cultivate GREAT hair, I'm SURE I will become a GREAT writer.

Here's what you've got to work with. I have very thin, fine hair that is wavy-curly. It doesn't look thin because of the curliness, but it is. I love to wear it long; when wet, it's point touches my waist. I'd love to grow it longer, but it doesn't seem to grow like it used to when I was in my twenties (I'm now 44).

So, I'm open to signature hairdo ideas. I'd like to get going on this famous author bit as soon as possible. It's not easy being a starving writer, but it sure beats being a starving writer with bad hair.

Hairs to ya,
Julie

You know.. I never thought of that before. Many great writers have great hair, and I should add that to my hair motivation list. Speaking of which, that needs to be typed up and posted sometime....
