Being a published author was never a dream of mine. In fact, it was something I fell into.
But once that happened, writing became a total obsession. At the risk of boring
you, I will briefly repeat my story. I was a freelance reader for seven years. I
had read thousands of plots, giving the publishing house my thoughts on which

My Writing Dream Come True by Lynn Lovegreen
I’ve been lucky enough to have many writing dreams come true. When I first started writing, my dream was to finish a book. Once I did that, thanks to NaNoWriMo (https://nanowrimo.org), then my dream was to write a good book, one people would want to read. After many years of writing, critiquing, and revising, I did write a decent novel, which became Fools Gold.

My Dream Almost Came True by Paty Jager
Acceptance, that seems to have always been my struggle. Growing up in a small rural community where most of my classmates were from families that homesteaded the area, I felt like the "California Girl" all of my childhood even though I was 2 when we moved to Oregon. I didn't fit in. I read all the time, I was shy, and I was always around boys when I wasn't at school. My two brothers and my

I had a dream of being loved. It came true but it wasn’t easy
“Romance has the power to heal hearts. It did mine.”
“ I'm inspired to write about couples who bravely challenge beliefs
that prevent them from having a loving relationship. They share a journey that
conquers self-doubt but brings awareness
of past mistakes. Each never gives up and works hard to overcome seemingly
insurmountable odds to find happiness in love.”
This is the opening paragraph
