    Chelsey,

    I am Geoffrey Gevalt, founder of Young Writers Project. I have passed YWP onto Susan Reid but pop in from time to time. May I suggest that you contact Susan via msg or emal to have her change your username to a non-email name. Since your username is public, it is therefore available for those dreaded spammers. So I make this suggestion for safety's sake.

    Peace,

    And I love this piece. I am mystified by the mushrooms and fungi that populate the woods and am in awe of those who know which ones you can eat and which ones you shouldn't. I presume that you are one of those with the knowledge and confidence to do what i dare not do!

    Thanks for sharing this.

    Hi. Thanks for the comments and suggestions. I will change my username. One of my students wrote this piece. We love Young Writers and the happiness they have when their pieces get published. Thanks for reading her piece!
