Hi all, I am waist deep in my self reinvention. Working my ass off, literally and figuratively, to regain control of my body. "This is WAR" is my new motto.( Someone will catch the reference.) Anyway, with all of the reinvention going on, I have been neglecting my writing. However I have been doing some editing of my second novel. Someone once said, "Self doubt is the killer of all dreams." No one knows this better than I. I just cant help but think I am lacking. I can tell a good story, but my dyslexia makes my technical skills utterly hopeless. It would be great to have a co-writer or partner to help me for the long haul. Unfortunately, I cant find anyone who seriously wants to help. So I muttle forth.  I am bringing you a piece from Scarred today. Lightly edited, fried, and burnt to a crisp. (teehee) So Manja!! Scarred           “Will there be any other guests?” I ask, mainly because I made enough guacamole for ten people....

Hi all, Thought I would get a jump on things this week. I started editing a completed manuscript again and decided to share a piece that I like. I feel like I have been a huge fail as of late and needed to make it up to you. I hope you love this bit as much as I do! Without further adu...... Scarred “Hello Israel”             I cringe, and every hair on my body stands on end. Shit! I slowly trail my eyes up to His face and press out an unconvincing smile. “John;” I give a hard nod. He pulls out the chair across from me and sits, smugly leaning back and crossing his legs. Jackass.   “What do you want John?” I ask in a gruff tone.             “Cant a guy get some coffee without being questioned about his motives?” He asks feigning offence.             “Your gallery is right across the street from a...

Well its that time again. I am working nights again so my head isn't on right. I have been diddling with poetry for the past few weeks. Not sure if this is any good. I have to clear the cobwebs from my brain before I can write again. FOCUS ...I have none. Anyhoo!! Hope this isn't too terrible  :) for some reason I feel like its not finished... Oh well its inspiration will never see it anyway.  The Bard You’re one in a million hysterical fans Screaming and crying with outstretched hands You stand in the front and sing out the words But it fades into the noise of the anonymous herd You close your eyes absorbing the sounds The crescendos, and pauses, and bass as it pounds The feelings incited could bring tears to your eyes Instead, your souls peaceful, excited, surprised The band brings a thunder so incessant and hard Delivered softly to the crowd through the words of a bard Your heart starts to pound in rhythm with the lights Blood bu...

Hi all, Another week gone by. I have done some writing but not enough to form a throw out. So this week I am bringing you a scene from a book I am proofing before sending it to beta. It has been a while since I have put excerpts of Scarred up, so hopefully it piques your interest. This will be far better than the crap I have been penning this week. Although, if there were a Jared Leto fan fiction sight, I could make some money there. Jeezus I am a sad sad girl. Anyhoo, since I value the opinions of my readers. I would love if you could give feedback on this scene. I understand that giving an opinion can be daunting, or off putting but it can be left anonymously so you don't need to worry about upsetting me.  After all, I asked for it right.  I am worried about this scene in particular because of the subject matter. The novel itself has a couple scenes of this nature and I want to know if this would make you walk away from the story. It is choppy because it is written from...
