Sherry Carr-Smith is a mom, a wife, a re-married widow, and a crafter who writes about all those things on her personal blog, Paper, Scissors, Keyboard. Sherry believes that writing can help you celebrate happiness, work through grief and make meaningful connections. Some of her best friends are people who she's never met in real life (but aren't just voices in her head) or are people she met first online. Sherry has been a public relations counselor for non-profit organizations since 1997; and considers herself super lucky to get to go to the office every day where she works with amazing people and gets to help her community. She also finds it weird to write about herself in third person.Sherry has been online in some way or another since the late 1990s, and has been writing online since 2006. Her current blog, Paper, Scissors, Keyboard, is about two years old. All her writing before the late 1990s is in angst-filled notebooks that are best left packed away under her bed. She loves Quantum Leap, ice cream, Northanger Abbey, and her Grandma’s Cheesy Chilli Mac. It’s possible she's addicted to Pinterest.This is Sherry's first Blissdom and as a Community Leader for new bloggers hopes to:

   
• Become a resource for those who are just starting out and whose only readers are their Moms...because she knows how that feels,
   
• Help new bloggers see where they fit in the giant world of blogs, and
   
• Serve as a sounding board for new bloggers who might think nobody is listening.
