..the NightTime prayers of 'Flesh'

Hello World, Hello Universe. How the fueling Flesh longs, itching for the Vibrating Touch of Another; a delicate Touch of the Tongue, a Caressing of Grazing by the Hands, an Awakening of the Dreaming Heart. An Electrical Thirst of Positive and Negative Charges; Touches sweet of nectar, of Heated and Hot Skin, of fluttering-rich Emotions. For these are…

NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER 2011

Festive Greetings to everyone!

So hard to believe that Christmas is less than a month away and the New Year begins in just a little over a month. Where does the time go?

November has been a busy month for me. Three book-signings, tons of business cards into the hands of interested parties and hopefully future readers of my work. It is always said that 'slow and easy wins the race', well I'm hoping that old adage will prove true with…

Those That Can, Do. Those That Can't, Teach...or something like that.

Since the problems with writing come in all sorts of sizes and types, I decided the best way to find the answers to my problems was to take the subject of error, by the throat, and teach a classs.

I can tell you it worked. Not only did I uncover a multitude of questions I could not answer appropriately, I also retrieved a lot of answers from my students. These students aren't just "run of the mill" folks. They are ex-school teachers, who have retired; musical talent from…

I'm a NaNoWriMo 2011 Winner - Hooray!

Well I did it! I entered NaNoWriMo for the very first time, and I succeeded, and I won. Tonight at midnight I validated my novel with 50,168 words. The best thing is, I haven't even finished yet but I am so close to the end I can taste it, and it is sweet!

It has been a long, hard month. My poor baby daughter has become very well-acquainted with her toys and the popular British children's TV channel…

From my son, to my father

Sometimes people used to say, “Like father, like son.” That was because I was just as arrogant as my father was. I was as short-tempered as my father was. But unlike him, I was an optimistic. He believed in fate while I believed in hard work and luck. He set some rules around my neck but they weren’t too tight for me to choke. I had my space and he never interfered. I finished my graduation and was waiting for a call letter from a company. I was planning to give a surprise at home about my…

Words aren't always what they seem

The first time I heard the word 'kounoupi' in Greek, I might not have known what it was, but it sure did sound cute... all cuddly and fluffy and inviting...

So imagine my disappointment when I learned that there's nothing delighful or charming at all when it comes the these creatures; when I learned that their sole remit in life is to do nothing but cause down and out misery.

Big changes for this author!

My first book Sensitivity 101 for the Heterosexual Male was re-released by my publisher as Sensitivity 101 the Search for Acceptance back in July 2011. It has since been picked up by a traditional publisher and will be re-issued again in early 2012 under another name and cover. This gave me the opportunity to re-edit and add some new and exciting twists to it. Because of this, the book will only be on Amazon until the first of the…
