Nature's Creativity

The red disc beneath the crimson sky coming out of the horizon kissing my naked face and inflaming my soul with love thus unfolding every mask off my face making me to visualise the originality anf the valley lost in the melodious call of a cuckoo who is searching for its mate.

The trees an epitome of endurance and strength selflessly continuing to serve mankind, the moon beams above the silvery thatch adding a gleamy texture of hope and happiness to life, the mountains watching…

Who's Nikki?

          Since this is my first blog post here on this site, I thought I would entertain some curiosity one might encounter when happening across my page. Who am I? Well, I am a simple country girl, born and raised in Central Louisiana. I have always been a writer of sorts. It's just so much easier for me to articulate through my fingers than through my mouth. I started with journals and diaries at a young age, and went on to write poetry. I was super excited about…

At The Tournament, Part 2

Tournament pics Last week I started discussing a tournament I attended in Columbia, Missouri over Easter weekend. I mentioned that while I may compete in the various tournaments, the fun part for me is judging.

Let me explain for those who have never seen a martial arts tournament a little of how ours operates. Multiple competitions occur in the same ring. Forms, weapons, sparring, and combat sparring (with…

Long Time No Chat To

Once again I have stopped writing for a number of weeks. Things were happening but I was gutted especially since I had just done a fantastic torture session in my novel (what can I say I enjoyed fictionally torturing someone) it's not as if I would do it in real life so it was all good :-). I am almost half way through my novel (another 5000 words and I will be) and then all I have to do is write the final half which sounds wonderful to me. That's…

pick a possey

Well them who say the name of this one isn't tough with the wisdom they picked up. So pick a possey to ring another rose, kindness of the kingliness in me to those who want to know. The Holy war is only just begun as well as the war of mankind continue to fight what they dont see. Soldiers are coming home safe and sound but they support more of the the one who died in it for a day they had to breathe.

Websites

I decided to create a website to help market my stories for when they are in print. It was FREE to create the site with a company called Webnode. They have lots of templates and styles and you can adapt and tweak the site to your own preference.

My site is still in the early stages but up and running all the same. The only cost I incurred was the price of the domain name for 12 months it was £11.99 (approx $18). Yes there are companies out there that provide the domains a little…

Please Respond to this quote from "A Brownstone In Brooklyn"

I was asked to choose a quote from, A Brownstone in Brooklyn, to reflect on the unpredictable nature of life. How things are never the same and human beings have to adjust to life’s changing events. A Brownstone in Brooklyn is about growing up in the turbulent sixties, one of the most event filled decades in Black-American history.

A Brownstone in Brooklyn chronicles the…

The Confusion of And vs. To

The Confusion of And vs. To

English can be a difficult language to learn, not because English grammar is tricky (though it can be) but because the language can be vague. Word choice, in particular, can be very confusing, particularly when more than one word is possible.

Here’s a question I received recently about the nuances of the English language.

Question: Which of the following is correct:

a. I would like to send Peter an email AND give him my regards.

b. I…

A little confused

A site for authors, here, sounds like a great idea, but there doesn't appear to be any dedicated place for authors to list their books. This seems very strange.

Prisoner Of Life (Demo)

                                                                          Chapter 1

I was an normal worker in the fields of Africa, feeling the hot sun burning my skin, but it was on that day when I lost something that cannot be regained, for I lost the only thing that kept me at bay, my family. As I watched the ashes on the face of my wife, and the blood of my two children sinking into the soil, I knew Ihad nothing to live for. I threw my self in my own invisible…

Lady Red

Chapter 1 Part One

 It was a cold winter night. As blood dances onto of the ice, just like mice, with the cold hearted insight, no one would be safe tonight. For the blood links to the dress, with blood it will never end, for as long as she stays in this dress, blood will always fall to the end. The woman, who wares this dress, will never be in stress, she will always be in her dress, for the blood she seeks is in your chest. The woman's name should never be said, because if you do,…
