Summer of Reading

Most of those who visit this site love to read and write, and although for many, this time of year is hectic, I want to hear what you’re working on and reading. Give us a quick summery of your writing and the name and author of the books you love best that you’ve read so far this summer.

Happy reading and writing.

Picture of Sarah

Sarah is writer looking for an agent. She is currently working on novel # 4, editing novels 2 and 3, and querying novel # 1. For more insight to her work, visit: http://legendoftheprotectors.wordpress.com/ or http://legendoftheprotectors.blogspot.com/





Time gone by

Change, it happens to all of us, it is unstoppable. In the past year I have had my fourth child, promoted to EMT- Intermediate, gone back to school for my nursing degree, and had two foster daughters come and live with us. One has gone off to college, the other has just moved in.
All the changes in my life have kept me so busy that I realized I haven’t even worked on my stories for a year. I haven’t even logged in on this site for a year. I have been so involved with my life I couldn’t let any creative flows through. It is time for me to take back one thing that I love and make room for it with all the other things that I love. I am finally getting a full nights sleep and I am not bogged down with loads, on loads of homework! So here is to my summer of independence in writing!
Now, how do I get back into it? I am lost as were to begin. Any help or suggestions would be fantastic

The Words I Do Not Have!

For an extended period of time, I have been influenced by Audre Lorde and her essays. Unsure if it is because of all the new writing deadlines that are emerging compiled with balancing “real world” demands but she has been circling my thought process. Will she ever land and assist me in sorting out all these thoughts? Its as though I have writers block with a tea kettle full of thoughts and nothing is taking true form. What a conundrum! As writers, is the ability to write/express be a luxury with the words and sounds we do not have yet?
