Happy Memorial Day! Enjoy it with your loved ones! Remember those who gave us this beautiful day!?
Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mother’s out there!?
Hello All!
Here is a recent update as to what has been going on. Unfortunately I did not win the last contest that I entered. I look forward to entering some more contests. I have been busy with The Pen & Muse Blog and have even added staff to help with the book reviews.
I also took a conference with the help of a fellow blogger and learned of a ton of stuff which I will be implementing in the new blog when I get it up and running. Jeannine which did this website will be putting it up for me, which I know it will turn out awesome since this website did.
Other than that school is almost close to looking finished next year. Soon I will be able to write more as I embark on getting an MFA in writing and graphic design. I have tons of things to learn in the meantime. I have been also busy with the various groups I belong to. As much as I want to stay with all of them there are some I had to let go and possibly more in the future.
I also am currently editing one novel and short story, White Rider and Consoling Angel with the help of a friend. I’m also in the Script Frenzy competition to see if I can finish a script in 30 days. So far I’m at about 50 pages. Not sure if I’ll make it.. if not then I tried. There is always next year!
So that’s all Folks!
Head on over to find out more about The Donna Grant Dangerous Highlander contest. DH Contest http://bit.ly/5xV5pk
In the Christian faith, a creator made a son and sent him to cleanse the sins of his creation, man. He stopped time in order to bring his only son to this world and rejoice at a new beginning.
Let it be the beginning to a brand new year for all of us.
Remember to help those who cannot protect, defend, and care for themselves.
Each of us has a gift. We all have the the very light and love inside of us that our creator bestowed upon us.
Let this be the year where we come set about change for the good of our race.
Just as a father stopped time to share his gift so long ago…let us give the gift back in the highest form any species could give back.. LOVE.
Merry Christmas. Happy Holidays.
