I sometimes envy those authors whose books are centered in New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles. They describe neighborhoods and toss out street names and locations like a poker dealer throwing out the new hands to the players. Of course, if those authors live in those cities, then the familiarity is understood. For me, though, it’s still amazing because they seem to…

This is a short story of miracles wrought by angels in disguise who joined forces to save Ola, a youth pastor, minister of the gospel, communicator and an environmentalist who was involved in a fatal auto crash on 4th of October 2002 along Lagos – Ibadan Expressway in the south western region of Nigeria.

It was a day filled with miracles upon miracles that qualify to…

Intentionally relying on intentions

Remember intention relies on chance, not you

Addictive personality has driven me here

Wait, no, pause, right, straight, there

Warped perceptions are poisonous

Not much different in our lives

Just completely different in our realities

Different isn't always bad, I say

I am not saintly…

(« Dante and Beatrice gaze upon the highest Heaven » by Gustave Doré)

You know what really scares me

Still now at the age of forty one

Is being all alone and unable to see

There’snowhere leftto go, nowhere left to run

You know what I am afraid to feel

Is sickness, or any form of pain

Aging is a process, a part of the deal

But what if the first to go is my memory, my brain

You know what I don’t want to lose

The chance to amend many a wrong

To die without sharing, thoughts…

 feeling so lost when your not around

being in love is the hardest part of life

but it is the sweetest and romantic

living in a small world alone

having three volcanoes and a rose

he lives alone 2x

but the problem may never go

trusting each other that makes love grow

and if living in a new world

Q1: Thanks for participating in our Authors.com Spotlight Interview series C.Y.! Please introduce yourself and your book to help our readers get to know you.

A: Hi, thanks for the opportunity to share a little of myself with other members of Authors.com.  I'm C.Y.

VOY is my freshman debut into the world of writing.  I grew up near Palmer and continued to live in the…

As a new writer I'm finding that I need to take a break from time to time and let my brain catch up to my story.  Then all of a sudden in the middle of the night an idea will hit me of how to pick up where I left off and my story continues...is this normal?  I also find I keep going back and re-reading and re-writing what I've already written...Have you found this approach works for you or am I making more work for myself when I'll probably need my work professionally edited anyway?

Considering what many people know (or don’t know) about the gods of Greek myth, it’s not surprising to learn that the idea of horror doesn’t really factor into the mythology. Some of the myths and legends may indeed frighten, but very few actually are intended to invoke that nausea that emanates from a story where blood, bile, and other bodily fluids are ripped or drained from a human. Certain myths tell of horrific events, things that mere mortals wouldn’t be able to stomach for long, but…
