Welcome to our volunteer spotlight of Carol Castellanos.
Below is an interview I had with Carol.
Carol: I originally volunteered to do book reviews at another site. I can't exactly remember how I ended up at Sime~Gen from there. I then went from reviewer to uploading reviews. From there Sime~Gen gave me thechance to work on other columns.
Carol: How to make web page backgrounds thanks to Patric, the webmaster here. I've learned there's a lot more to learn. I've also learned that I love meeting the authors and doing the reviews I do. I've also learned it is time to try my hand at writing the stories I have been keeping in my head.
Carol: If you mean at Sime~Gen, my skills have allowed me to learn even more skills. They have also afforded me the chance to learn what I would really love to do for a living. If you mean at my day job, nothing other than it's not the kind of job I want to do forever. My day job is very different from Sime~Gen job.
Carol: Officially, I now wear two. Vampire Reviews (although it's no longer strictly vampires anymore). Columnist and Author Spotlights Coordinator and Interviewer. Unofficially, I tend to help where I can when I have time. Although that hasn't been much lately. I have in the past, been a reviews uploader and Romance Site Coordinator as well as teaching others how to upload and post reviews.
Carol: Well, I just launched my newest spotlights section. Authors Are People Too!!! Two of my favorite authors gave me the idea. It seems a lot of us forget authors have families, day jobs and the same trials and tribulations as the rest of us.
Carol: Its given me the confidence to begin my own writing. In addition, I have had the chance to make some very nice online friendships with authors I may never have met otherwise.
Carol: Well, I've met quite a few people at Sime~Gen like Jacqueline Lichtenberg, Karen MacLeod, and Patric, our webmaster, has helped me quite a bit along the way.
Carol: Since I've only been here a few years, lasting relationship wise, you will have to ask me in another few years.
