Barbara L. B. Storey is a writer, photographer, and digital artist. She loves to write, to read, to travel, and is also crazy about baseball. She was born and now lives in Canada, but is a former resident of New York City and misses it very much.

Ooops!

I didn’t mean to take this long to do my second post. Sigh. Life just has a way of interfering sometimes.

But I did do my first event as a publisher — a book launch for one of my authors on Dec 3. Yes, I started a micro publishing company this fall. Two authors published, both poetry, and plans for I think 4 other books next year. The website for it is still under construction, but my Facebook page

Barbara’s Quotes

“Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.”
― Rumi

“This being human is a guest house. Every morning is a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor...Welcome and entertain them all. Treat each guest honorably. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.”
― Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi
