Lit. Update, etc.
Revisions on poetry pieces are under way! I’ve chosen the basic arrangement and exactly which poems will be in this manuscript. I’m very happy with how it’s shaping up and might begin releasing a few excerpts sometime next month.
I have been working on furthering my education in the publishing field and will be sharing a couple of good resources I’ve found to this site. I have to divide up my time now because more priorities are demanding my attention, but I will still work to update T.W.N. on schedule.
New content has been posted to S.D. Feel free to check it out! A new update will be released to the blog soon with some interesting news.

Lit. Update: Cozy Mystery Novel
I’m pleased to announce the submission process has begun! I’m awaiting replies from a couple of agents, while also searching for others to query. I’m taking my time and being very careful, asking as many probing questions as possible. It’s the best way to avoid scams that target new authors.
For anyone looking to find a professional with good credentials to submit your work to – regardless of genre – I highly recommend using the resources of the A.A.R. or another such organization that verifies legitimacy and ethics. It means nothing if an agent themselves is also a writer or has successfully placed a lot of other authors with good publishers. These days, there are a number of people in the industry who take advantage of first-time writers. Agents who are honest and serious about their profession take the time to gain and maintain membership in A.A.R. This…

“The Weekly Smile” #weeklysmile “The Magic Of Books!”
One of my all-time favorite activities growing up was reading, both silently and out loud to my mother. Recently, we've picked the tradition back up by reading before bed. As Alura has mentioned in this new article, it's a wonderful way to better your physical and mental health, build your vocabulary, better family time and... Continue Reading →
Friday’s The Grateful Five”
I am so thankful for: people who care for the animalsthose who care enough to say "How can I help?"those who want to learn real truth and inspire others to do the samethe beauty of frost on the fallen leavesthe poets throughout time who have inspired me
By the day: Reading, it’s not an old school thing…
An important article and some inspiration and advice in A Life Of Virtue. My work even gets a mention! Thanks, Alura!
Books are so valuable, I don’t think people even really realize it. There was a time where certain books weren’t even allowed. A long time ago, the church as well as the government used to determine what the people were allowed to have, in terms of education and resources of information. There was even a time that you weren’t allowed to own a Bible yourself!
As the world around us took shape throughout the centuries, different books and topics went through so many challenges. People had to abide by what the law said. Unfortunately, in a lot of ways it is still like this. There is the notion that we have more freedom now than we used to. I suppose it is true to some degree… But censorship is still a tremendous problem in terms of education, spirituality, and what people are allowed to know in terms of truth.
