ProfoundPuns on HubPages

My name is Pam, and right now I work as an editor for a homeschool publishing company. I'm an editor by day, writer/hubber/actress/eBay seller by night. If you're unfamiliar with what goes on in eBay, take a gander at my eBay Encyclopedia.

I love children. I don't have any of my own, but I've known I wanted to be a mother since I was a child myself. I've been babysitting on and off for 10 years, and I get along with kids really well.

I love wit, puns, and satirical humor. I have a number of hubs about writing, and many that are an attempt at humor. My latest HubPages pursuits have been in-house satire: The Funniest HubPages Requests (And My Answers)

For all those who want to be freelance writers but don't know the ways to begin, I've compiled a guide at How to Get Published in a Magazine: A Step by Step Guide

I have a disorder called Trichotillomania. Never heard of it? Read about it at my hub! Trichotillomania Shame: The Secret Hair-Pulling Compulsion

Oh, and for all the moms out there... if you think your child's room is a mess, you've never seen mine: Why Teenage Girls Never Clean Their Rooms

I've recently joined eHow: My new eHow profile!

Hello and welcome. I read your hub on trichotillomania, and I noticed some fascinating coincidences(?)

I'm one of those with self-diagnosed trichotillomania, although I don't even have the word itself memorized. My particular compulsion is also to pull out my eyelashes, and I also do it because some hairs seem to be "out of place" somehow.

I also love writing.

I'm also a grammar geek (inc. spelling), and plan to write a hub about it sometime soon.

I also have a really messy house. I just get too overwhelmed with the task and can't seem to get started.

As you know, I'm also a cat lover. My cat likes to sleep with his head propped up on various objects such as my remote control. Your avatar really grabbed my attention, as you can imagine.

I'll bet our personalities are similar in lots of other ways, too. Maybe we have some similar genes that give us all of these tendencies. I think it'd be fun to do some guessing games about each other's lives.

I'm enjoying reading your hubs, so please keep it up!

I feel I can relate to you on many levels... your love for cats, your spelling/grammar Nazism... well-written and interesting Hubs!
