Bedtime wishes for a child

unto the night
I bid thee peace
dream-filled slumber
of the pleasant sort
oh my child
how I adore thee
in comfort and
support
be as you were made
and love with
all your heart

NaNoWriMo took over my life!

It's been a while I know
Far too long
I missed the prose
But now I'm back
Ready to roll
with two books down
and dozens more to go!

The cover I am having drawn is not complete yet. My friend who is uber-talented is putting on some finishing touches, but check back for that and I am looking for reviews - honest ones, of course!! Thanks for all the support!

For all my fellow night owls

The sunrise may be lovely but starlight is my best the twinkling sky reflects my city lights still of night babes sound asleep I sit awake The low buzz of random cars echo down the nearby street otherwise just the lyrics of classic rock from Pandora's Candlelight full red wine my time to shine give ...

Sleepless

Emotions flaring Rumbling through my head I cannot shut them down Or push them out Thoughts of stories rumbling Like the trains in the distance No lyrics can drown them out Still rolling through my mind Pushing their way forth Fighting for the right to be realized Chararcters with desires Their want...

Truth

From a point of view
You say that it is true
The lines are blurred
Those double meaning words
The damages done
And in the end the words
are the victims left unheard

Anybody know a good agent and/or publisher?

I finished my first book - epic fantasy - a few months ago, have gone through editing, re-editing, and editing again, have gotten feedback from a handful of others and have queried agents with no response. It is the first in what I hope to write as a series (yes, I have absolutely started the second...

Serenity

Candle light on a quiet night
a cool wind blows off the lake
Tonight I write for my delight
the lives are mine to make
Tomorrow is for house and home
meals, laundry, and the phone
Tonight I close my eyes and see
a world beyond my own

For you who sorrowed my heart

I know this won't matter to you we are lost, to me I'm just floating, in a house for the lost, it's your heart I miss, you were my home, and I was your house, two lives so entangled, now torn apart, two Gifts in the middle, to swing to and for, as lives once entwined, now fallen apart, farewell to t...

Broken

Watching others live a lie
I no longer can believe
wear a mask
a smile
a laugh
Fearing others will soon see
the growing chasm
that is
me

Re: I just want to write

I hit writer's block in the worst way over the weekend - then I got back on track with a query letter today - I think - we will see what agents think, I suppose.
