- Let me know when you launch your page - I want to list it among my Blogs of Interest on the Nontrads blog page! Hope things are going well with you, Mary. I like your name, it is also my mother's name (Mary). Nice name. :-)

About Me
I'm a freelance writer and blogger from Western Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh. I have three kids, ages 10, 8, and 18 months. They keep me pretty busy. In my former career, I was a community college academic counselor. Recently I've decided to combine my love of writing with my passion for higher education, and I started the blog Never Too Late For College, a place for adult students to find advice on navigating the world of higher education. I look forward to getting to know everyone here!
