Author's Corner

Writing is awesome. Being able to be in control of what I write and how it's published is a great feeling. 

Being a published author requires work. It takes more than just talent to succeed. It takes hard work. Hard work means persistence: to keep moving forward. If you have a book that you want to write, write a few pages to your book every day or at least once a month. You'd be surprised at how much the pages will add up. For the poets out there, write a poem everyday! You can do it. That quiet time that you have when you get home and are clearing your head, get a piece of scrap paper and put your words to paper. 

Self-publishing or agent-seeking can begin at a later date. Stay focused on completing a manuscript.

No Body Shaming Campaign

Good Morning! I'm currently watching My Big Fat Fab Life. This is the episode where Whitney gathers a group of friends to tell their story for the No Body Shaming Campaign. It's an amazing episode. It is in this episode that you get to hear the stories of those who have misjudged based on their appearance. It's so important to remember that whenever you cross paths with anyone, they have a story to tell. Whether that story fits their physical description, acknowledge the fact that you can't decide what someone else's story will be. I support the No Body Shaming Campaign. We are real. We are human. This means that even with the imperfections we are still intelligent. Take the time to understand someone's story if they are willing to tell it. Don't be so quick to associate a physical appearance with a misconstrued life story. The whispers, the pointing, the stares, they all mean something. Even when you think it might be subtle, it is noticed. So yes, maybe in...
