Hi to Everybody,
That's my first article in English. Please, read it and say, if it's terrible, bad, not bad or good.
Thank you for your time.

Wow! This is a great article for your first effort!

I enjoyed reading about how to collect shells. It was easy to understand. I learned some new things, too.

My only suggestion is to make some of the sentences shorter. Sometimes you had several ideas in one sentence. It would be easier to read and understand if you had one thing per sentence. That is also the way that news reporters write.

Keep up the good work!

Suzanne,
Many thanks for your positive comment about my first article.
Okay, I'll try to use shorter sentences for my next article.
Gene.
