Message:: [QUOTE="Clinker, post: 294868, member: 6229"]rotobeast  In the early 60s I was a stringer for two newspaers. In the 70s I wrote articles for Income Opportunities Magazine and Salesman Opportunity Magazine. In the 80s I wrote articles for newspapers and other publications in the Specialty Advertising business. In the late 90s to early 2000s I changed to poetry, a relationship I dabbled with in High School. In 2005 Xlibris published a book of my poems. In February 2005 I suffered a stroke and never recovered enough to go on a publishing or authors tour to promote it. Because of the stroke, I am confined at home. Wanting, NEEDING to do something I decided to return to coin collecting by amassing silver coins of my birth year (1935). As I surfed the internet, scoured the ads in numismatic publications and voraciosly reread the Redbook, Krause's World Coins, and other coin books, other coins appealed to me, so Iadded them to my collection. Now, I'm collecting coins, writing about interesting finds in my coin searches, and publishing an e-zine called Classified Coin Ads Shopperand, because of Coin Talk's moderators and members (like you), I'm enjoying life again! All the best to you, Clinker[/QUOTE]
