What about people like me?
As well as not liking to be photographed, I don't like to speak on answering machines and such like. I would find it very awkward to sit here, trying to record my voice for others to judge. _________________ No comment |

I wrote " the cat sat on the mat "and now I will delete it and type the intended message.
It's easy-peasy when you first record your voice, and then type the text. _________________ Keep it simple ... Keep it interesting. |

While I do understand your concern, Shyone, I suspect that you will be pleasantly surprised. People here seem to be generally positive and supportive, and all of us can learn from each other.
I just realized that your screen name may be derived from, "shy one". What better way to work on breaking through such perceived barriers than by speaking here? Everything becomes easier with practice!

You don't pose very much of a challenge, as you are neither old nor a dog! :lol:
(You see the advantages of posting your photograph!?) :D

Good Morning (Sorry, should have said that in the first place)
I'll take the picture down and replace it with an old dog so. :lol:
But seriously, I had these troubles all my life, and try as I might, I can't talk to a machine, I rather hang up and try again later. :oops: _________________ No comment |

Good morning Andria, no reference to you. Rather David referring to me, or so I thought. _________________ Keep it simple ... Keep it interesting. |

He'd better not refer to you or he'll feel my wrath. :P
