New Review on The Dark World!
Vera rated it 5 starsThis was the first book of the series that I read. I found the characters, locations and the story line to be extremely fabulous.

I've written short stories for the class thus far, two poems, and naturally, my inclination was to write, or share, my previously written work, or […]
Happy November!

Isn't that such great news?! I'm glad everyone's who's read it is enjoying it thus far. It really makes me breath a sigh of relief, you know? To know that someone's work is being read and enjoyed is validating as hell.

I know we're not to write for 'everyone else' but it DOES help me, at least, with knowing that what I thought and felt others would enjoy (because I, myself enjoyed writing it and reading it) holds true. I hold onto my intuition and don't let it fade that way. I like to think of myself as someone who knows marketing or at least has a natural feel for it.

I guess we'll see once the first book is out February 26th, won't we?!
