About

Someone emailed asking me my name. My name is Valerie. Online I go by valmg, which is a combination of my first and last name. I’ve been online for so long that it is what everyone knows me as and I like it too. But for those that wish to address me otherwise, Valerie is fine. Or “o wise one”. LOL.
