I would love to be a writer like Ernest Hemmingway and go to Paris, sit in the cafe while sipping wine, watch the world go by, and write.  Do you know what he wrote about in Paris? He began by writing about his growing-up years in Oak Park, Illinois.  He traveled far away to open his mind and eyes to the stories of his life.

Writing is work!  Pulling sensible words together to describe the scene dancing within your mind can be daunting and, at other times, flows like a raging river.  Unfortunately, moving to Paris is not an option for me, so I will have to find my inspiration from my 40 years of experience writing in journals and notebooks. A lot of journals and notebooks.

I had a Christian Children’s book (The Tent Maker) published some years ago. Unfortunately, my publisher decided to deposit over 800 authors’ and musicians’ royalty checks in their personal accounts. Yes, they were caught and punished. Thankfully, today, I now have my rights to all of my work! And will soon publish again under my name.

And I pray God gives me enough time to go through all my journals and notebooks and publish my books. Also, to burn a few of them, or my youngest son says he will auction them off to the highest bidder!

This is the new cover I had to do because of the Kindle and Amazon publishing formats. I learned a new skill: how to format books! Click on either cover to go to Amazon!
