I want to take a little bit of time, however, to celebrate a few OTHER books being released today: Carry On by Rainbow Rowell, Life and Death by Stephenie Meyer, and of course, the illustrated edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.

The fact that my book came out on the same day as all of these ladies is, quite frankly, a huge fangirl honor for me.  JK Rowling is Queen, as everyone knows, and I don’t know a single person whose lives she hasn’t touched with her magical world.  Stephenie Meyer, yeah, okay, it’s kind of fun to make fun…

Tomorrow is the day.  The next book in the Cemetery Tours series, After Death, will be available!  To share a little secret with you, the Kindle eBook was available last night, but then I was told that there’d been a technical error with the file and I had to take it down.

Cue every author’s nightmare.

Any other day, if you asked me if there was anything I didn’t love about what I do, the answer would be no.  But there are moments, like last night and half of today, when the self-doubt and unforeseen glitches start getting the better of me.  This is a fun business and I love it so much and I love my books and characters, but the act of publishing itself can be very stressful.  There’s already pressure on authors to write books that people want to read, but formatting and making them look…

Living In Peace and Harmony

If you want peace make peace with all people. Especially love your family and friends. God gave you love. It’s time to show compassion to your family. Living in peace and harmony is getting along with everyone. Some people won’t change, but showing sportsmanship is best. Think of the happy places you’ve been to. Think of your family always in memories. If you own a dog show him love. Love one another. Peace is love. Your greatest gifts are peace and harmony. Like John Lennon once said, “Give Peace A chance.” It goes the same for you all. Remember no worries, and no problems. Love conquers all.

The Music I was Listening today

On my phone I was listening to Pandora. It’s the usual. 50’s and 60’s music. Mostly it was music from Paul Anka. I love that song “Puppy Love”. From a group I heard “Sixteen Candles”. Another song is “A Teenager In Love”. I have heard so many in Paul Anka radio. I saw the modern car stereos last weekend at Best Buy and they look awesome! They have GPS also near the car stereos displayed in the store. I do listen to some of the Elvis Presley music. I also was listening to Heavy D radio on Pandora. I remember the song “Donna” by Ritche Valens. I listen to music at night to get some sleep. I usually listen to 93.1, or accuradio. On accuradio I put some smooth jazz: piano.

October 5, 2015

I have walked a mile around the block. Today was a calm day for me. I was watching Britney Spears’ and Miley Cyrus’ music video. I listen to their music most often whenever I get the chance.

I am relaxed on lifting weights and doing exercise. It feels now like routine everyday.

I am waiting till tomorrow for Jackie E. Smith’s new novel. I think she is truly gifted. Her novel After Death will be great for me to read. Her ghost stories are fascinating and interesting.

I usually read crime novels. I have finished reading the two parts of The Fisher King episodes in the show Criminal Minds.

I tap my fingers on my keyboard, because I am thinking of what to type next. It’s routine. I think I will stop typing for now.

Well, I am signing-off, and writing-off! Till, the next post, friends! 🙂

October 3, 2015

I was reading The Vampire Diaries novel Salvation: Unseen. I used to read Vampire Diaries novels in paperback, but now read them in my kindle.

Stephen King is masterful with his macabre characters. My favorite movie of his is Christine. It is different is the reason why I loved it. It was about a bond with a nerd and his living car. The car kills people who bully the nerd, which is the car’s owner. The car is named Christine. It was named by the owner. Well, if you want to read the novel, or watch the movie. I won’t spoil the ending.

I sealed the plans today. I worked at the computer in architecture work.

I was watching VH1 classic today. The 80’s music brought back memories of those videos. I still love to watch the old hip-hop, R&B, pop, and soft rock videos. There is even documentaries of the singers from way back then. I started watching a couple of those. It was interesting.

On Palladia there is a show where Darryl Hall sings all his classic hits, and along the old 80’s, 90’s singers hits. The actual singers like Sammy Hagar for example sing his songs along with him. I like that show much.

It seems that I still love the nostalgia 80’s and 90’s music. It stuck with me. Don’t get me wrong I love the new music of today’s decade also. I never turned my back on it. My favorite artists right now are Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, Beyoncé, and Katy Perry.

Well, I am off to sleep. Bye! Till the next post!

This New Year’s Eve Anniversary Party of 2015!

Counting to the New Year’s Day I want to see cheers, but no jeers! Everything is starting anew in most people’s lives, once 2016 comes very soon. Have fun on the last day of 2015 when it comes. I know it is too early to do this, but I am advising you to be happy. Be grateful for what God gave you. We’ll celebrate only the glories, but not the failures. But, in the meantime don’t concentrate on that yet, and live your life on the rest of 2015. Be safe! Make amends! No fighting! No revenge! Respect others! Stay positive! Enjoy what is left of this year! Remember God is watching all of you! Bye, friends! 🙂

I have been doing exercise and lifted weights. I feel great in health. My muscles are getting stronger. I feel good about myself.

I was watching The Physics of Light. I think I will watch it ten times over and over again. I don’t understand it fully, but know some of the stuff of light. It isn’t easy to understand. I will watch again The Fabric of the Cosmos. I was watching today the last two episodes of season 2 of the series Hell On Wheels. I am on season 3 now.

This is a short post, because I will be busy studying today. I on the other words have sealed the plans and worked on the computer of architectural plans of my dad’s clients.

I will be signing-off, and writing-off! Until next post, friends! 🙂

Take Life Easy

When you are enjoying life. Take it easy. Relax. Don’t start being hysterically happy. Control your emotions. You are in control of your life. You deserve some of the fun. Right back in the weekend you’re back to work. Concentrate on what you’re doing while working. After a hard day’s work. Pat yourself on the back. When the weekend comes have some fun going out with friends doing something entertaining. There are many things to do. Be happy and positive. Watch a movie. Read a book in a bookstore. Go out and see computers, TV, and Car Stereos at an electronics store. Go to a park and feel happy without focusing on problems all the time. Be carefree. Take life easy.

I was reading an astronomy book. I was also reading one of the Vampire Diaries novel called Salvation: Unmasked. It is very interesting. I love reading about vampires.

I was watching Criminal Minds and now have the last episode to watch later on of season 1. I am almost to season 2. It’s awesome that this series has ten seasons. Awesome! In this way I’ll never think that the show never ended. Some other shows lasts about 5 or 6 seasons. Probably more like 7 seasons. But, this one I love to watch. It gets right to the point of why criminals kill innocent people. It is more understanding of other shows of this isn’t just because they’re evil people they do these things. I think it probably goes to the suspects family roots.

Well, I was watching The Physics of Light. I didn’t know that Netflix has this show also. Great! Because, I can get to watch episode 6 next, and Amazon Prime only have 1-5 episodes. I am understanding astronomy. I am taking it day-by-day.

I am walking everyday. I feel healthy.

October is here! The Holidays will soon be coming. I have trees in my neighborhood. It’s beautiful watching the squirrels go up the trees. In fact two were fighting up the trees and one fell to the ground grass, but it got up and went up the tree, anyway. It was like if it didn’t feel anything, and went like nothing bad happened. Before, it took like two months without watching them go up the trees.

I was reading my online writing course I took this current month. I finished the class, but am still studying it again. I feel full of writing knowledge. Well, I always will learn something from the craft of writing. Something always new comes up. I am understanding Writing The Fantasy Novel.

Well, I am writing-off, and signing-off! Bye, friends! 🙂
