Interview with author Raine Thomas

Since becoming a 'twitter junkie' five months ago, I have had the pleasure of meeting a myriad of different people and enjoyed making new friends all over the world. One of the most interesting relationships I have experienced is the common bond I found with YA author Raine Thomas of the Daughters of Saraqael series. She is a genuinely kind person and will go out of her way to help anyone she can. In the short amount of time we have gotten to know one another, Raine has been extremely...

O Ye of Little Faith...In Our Youth

Today's youth has received a horrible reputation for being 'rude, 'wild', and 'irresponsible' says a recent study of contemporary teens versus those born before 1999. Adults from 1989 were asked to compare today's youth to their own peers and words such as selfish, materialistic and reckless were used quite frequently from the folks from Generation X. Pretty harsh if you ask me!
Each generation of teen youth receives a failing grade from the older generations before them as they tend to say...

Invincible Inspiration

My family and I love to watch movies together and we especially enjoy watching our favorites repeatedly. Invincible, the true story about Vince Papale's inconceivable rise to become a professional football player is one of our top five. We have played that DVD countless times but tonight prior to playing the movie we decided to watch the 'bonus' features about the real Vince. It was then that I began to slowly assimilate the harmonized kinship of our lives.

For the skeptics, let's disclose...

Uninvited Guest

Nausea rises slowly in the chamber of your throat and your heart begins to rapidly beat causing your veins to vibrate against your skin. A small ringing noise floods your ear cavity and the person speaking to you can no longer be heard but their mouth is still moving; slowly, painstakingly slow, almost in a time warp where you can see the words forming on their lips before they are spoken. They continue to talk in your presence but have noticed you have long since faded away and they no longe...

For the Love of Writing

It is said 'true writing' (not proto-writing) was invented independently in two different places; Mesopotamia around 3200 BC and Mesoamerica around 600 BC. Debates have erupted in various circles also crediting Egypt in 3200 BC and China in 1300 BC, lest we forget about the Tartaria Tablets from Transylvania that predates all of the others from 5500 BC. No matter where 'true writing' surfaced, it is by far the most exhilarating concept known to man. The simplistic idea of having the tool to...

Break the Bread

As children we are taught to share with others; our toys, food, time, love, along with many other characteristics. On the journey to 'teen land' our objectives have a tendency to develop into the realm of being self-absorbed, not necessarily selfish, rather unaware and solely concentrating on fellow adolescents, music, fashion, and/or/simultaneously on hormones. Not all teens go through the above mentioned, but some do and I can be honest and say when I was a teen I did just that. I walked...

Bestselling author John Locke

Late Friday evening all is dark in the house with the exception of the wall Scentsy (Lavender scent of course) and the blaring light of the computer screen. I gather my mojo and decide with all certainty to do it! Yep, I'm going to click the send button and take the virtual leap of faith by requesting an interview with John Locke, bestselling author and the person who happened to give me the encouragement I needed to continue my literary journey (unbeknownst to him of course).I sent a small...

Soup for the Soul

Hair refuses to cooperate, kids drank the last of the milk last night (which means no cereal for me), new puppy decided to wake up at the crack of dawn (for no apparent reason), and my husband forgot to put out the trash bin. GOOD MORNING WONDERFUL DAY FROM THE GATES OF HADES!
It's inevitable that one bad day will catch up with you sooner or later but sometimes it seems to hold out for long periods of time before crashing down on you like a ton of bricks. Today was that day! The victim in us...
