Who am I?

Why, I'm Cate Doefer! I'm a home-based medical transcriptionist by day. Ah, but by night... You may have chatted with me as "Catetheshiner" on an older version of WWR or now if I forget to log in (which happens). My temporal location is probably Michigan. I don't get around much.

I attended Wheatstalk 2007

I have been to WWR 8 items

I pooped in the WWR outhouse 6 items

I blog. Read it.

I brew beer 4 items

Why am I here?

I came to WWR to check it out, and I stayed because I love the company! It is always a learning experience, because things always keep changing here, but that's what keeps the synapses firing. I really appreciate that. I think you folks were helping to keep me young.

Sam Shaber

I heard Sam Shaber first here on WWR, and now I'm her greatest (let's avoid that word "biggest") fan! One of many things to thank WWR for! Here's a picture of my husband and me in the front row at a Sam Shaber concert in Grosse Point Park, Michigan. I'm the one in purple. This woman absolutely shines at her live show. Her energy is incredible. I highly recommend seeing her if you can!

Good seats, eh?

Indie Artists - Great Music - Request songs!

I've heard so much amazing music here on WWR, so many indie artists that I never would have seen or heard anywhere else.

My current favorites here are: Eleni Mandell, Rachel Ries, Antje Duvekot, Amy Martin and always Sam Shaber

Why don't you request them? 'Cause I've probably requested them so much I'm locked out by now.
