I am watching Grey’s Anatomy and am almost done with season one. It is interesting. I get to see how serious a career of doctors are. I saw today a little of Criminal Minds. I think that sadistic killers are sick and crazy.

I am enjoying reading Backstage. It is curious to know about boy bands and their biographies. I think those boy band careers do carry their very own madness.

I am studying writing reference books and magazines. I am getting used to how to write better and am improving it. I will learn forever and will never stop learning the craft of writing.

I think by taking publishing classes will help me how to self-publish my novels. It won’t be easy, and think that it is very difficult. It is not easy as it looks. But, first I am on to completing my two advanced writing online classes next year.

Okay, I will be writing-off, and signing-off! Till, the next post adventure, friends! Be safe! 🙂 ❤

Enjoy the brief biography of Marie Langston Carter.

Marie was a poet, a thrill seeker and an artist.  She had a style of her own and she didn’t care what anyone else thought.  She was a free spirit and marched to her own drummer.  Her poems were deep and life changing.  She wrote about her own life and the things she had seen during her travels.  Her poems were about love, hate, war, compassion, poverty, death and beauty.   She left bits of herself in each of her poems.

Men fell in love with Marie quickly and fully.  She enjoyed them but never promised anything more than a few hours of her time.  She had no desire to meet the needs of another person and was happy with the life she led.  Children would have tied her down and having to cater to a man was…

I have watched a few episodes of Grey’s Anatomy. It is about a show of Doctors, interns, and nurses trying to save lives in a hospital. I really like it. I am on the first season in episode 4. It is something different I wanted to watch instead of violent shows. I do like crime shows, but decided to see this series to follow-up on.

When I was walking around the neighborhood yesterday we saw three squirrels running up some trees. It was fun seeing them. Today we took a short walk, because pf the rain early morning.

I am almost done with Hell on Wheels. I have three episodes left to watch. I don’t care much for watching cable. I only watch cable to see sports, and be informed in the news.

I was reading Jackie’s brand new novel, Backstage. It is exciting and interesting. I am beginning to read it. I have it on my kindle. I am also reading Throne of Glass.

It is interesting the tools they have at Harbor freights Tools store. They have big and small key locks. They also have chainsaws. It just opened, and is near at my home.

I am almost done with the new Writer’s Digest magazine, and have picked up most of the tips. Plus, I have read Jojo Moyes’ interview, and liked it. I learned something new that when you publish a novel the second one gets more harder, and so on. Well, in my view we writers can’t think like that. We need to think it is manageable.

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

Today, my little sister turns 21.  I could very well make this a sentimental post about how she’s my best friend in the world and how she’s crossing a major milestone and how I’m so thankful to have her in my life, and all of that would be very, very true.  I don’t know where I’d be without her.

In honor of her birthday, I decided to release my new book, Backstage, the sequel to Boy Band, a day early on Kindle.  I did this, in part, because she loves the first book so much.  We’re both big boy band fans in real life, and she was the one who really pushed me to finish the first book and to publish it.  She enjoyed Cemetery Tours also, but not like Boy Band.

That being said, I hope you all enjoy the second book!  I did my best not…

We have a few days, and weeks till Christmas.

Today I was relaxing at my room. I have seen two episodes of Hell On Wheels. I am almost finished with the series. I saw a half episode of Criminal Minds.

Right now I am just typing. I will stay at my home. I was thinking of reading books.

I am thinking of how the 20th Century has changed much, and we’re on to the 21st Century. This is a new millennium. we are done with the beginning, and now we are at the 10th Century.

President Ronald Reagan has made America a great country. We owe it to him to keep it that way.

I loved the disco era, and it was an exciting decade to be in. The only thing is that I love the music. I like the way people have danced to disco. Learning how to dance to disco is learned.

Many things have changed in this world. Almost all of the things aren’t the same anymore. The innovation is getting better. This weekend I haven’t gone to Best Buy, because it was raining with heavy rain.

Well, I will be signing-off, and writing-off! Till the next post adventure, friends! Be safe! 🙂 ❤

My practice driving is getting much better. I didn’t walk today, because it was raining. I stayed at home.

However, I was hearing music. Through this day I was thinking of completing my courses in the next years. I will have to take professional writing classes this year. The next year of 2017, 2018 will be all about me learning how to publish my novels.

I love writing classes. I have learned a lot. I am very skilled at writing. Anyway, I keep thinking about studying grammar and will get on to it. This year has gone fast, and it doesn’t feel long at all of me being a professional. I don’t know what year will that be, but am not worried about it. I stick to the present.

The weather today is awful and am glad I am indoors.

Well, I will be signing-off, and writing-off! Till the next post adventure, friends! Be safe! 🙂

 

Celebrate the Season

The season is upon us. Enjoy it!

Orlando's avatarOrlando Espinosa

With the arrival of the holidays, many people may experience an odd mixture of excitement and dread as they prepare to celebrate the season. This can be a hard time for many who battle with loneliness or the loss of a loved one. Such emotions are natural and can be expected, but they shouldn’t be what drives you. No matter what you might be feeling, make it a point to enjoy and celebrate the season with family and friends. Surrounding yourself with people who care for you can ease the pain you may be facing!

The Power of Love

Read this poem of peace and click on the video below to see the talented Lindsey Sterling play Celtic Carol. Beautiful music! 🙂

Rivers Renewed's avatarRivers Renewed

Oceans 2195

Who ever thought there’d be such power in a tree,

such strength and knowing in a bouquet of flowers?

some lights, a festival – in this day of the big guns

and drones searching, the noise – there is yet a voice.

I can hear some carols of hope, lyrics of peace

that refuse to be quiet, it is our strength that shines

our love for each other, regardless of creed

that binds us, I can hear that same voice

through the oceans of history, the Celts,

the Japanese, the South Africans, and everywhere

in between. Let us celebrate love this year

in a special way. It will make us stronger

to sing songs of peace and joy.
