LA LUNA READERS

If you didn't already know English lovers everywhere have been celebrating the birthday of one of history's best play writes Sir William Shakespeare. Shakespeare has brought us many wonderful and tragic plays such as, Othello, Macbeth, A Midsummer Nights Dream, and Hamlet. I can say for one that I love his work and find that I draw upon them sometimes in my writing and even my teaching to show how his work is still relevant. I use it in my teaching to demonstrate that all the issues that we face today are issues that Shakespeare wrote about long before anyone. So in honor of his birthday why not pick up one of his books and read to your hearts content. 

So yesterday I finally finished typing up book one of my new sci-fi-distopia novella. It has been sitting around since June 2013 waiting to be typed up, but everything (school, job, life) got in the way. But happily I did that yesterday and now I am headed into editing and see if everything I've done so far works. Also on a happy note, I will be handing off a copy to a good friend of mine graphic designer and Illustrator Ian WIllis. Ian and I will be collaborating on possible putting some illustrations in my latest work and working on future projects together. Hopefully I will have a concept to show you of the book cover for my new book and also the title. I really didn't say anything about it because I don't know if I want to keep the title, since I was in Barnes and Nobles sometime ago and found a book there with the exact same title. SO, I am thinking I might ad something to it so that at least it's somewhat different. Well if you would like to view more of ...

Hey everyone, So I had a random thought while in bed. Thought: At any time do you feel like you are losing yourself? Well, I think I've been feeling that way for the past couple of weeks. I've been so unmotivated and I find it such a pain to even move to get things I need to be done. I've been sitting on my book for the past couple months and I've started typing what I have up so I can hand it off to the illustrator so that he can start on pulling the graphics together, but I just keep typing some and saying that I will get back to it when I have time... As a writer, I feel that this feeling, this whatever it is, could be the total death of my writing. I usually have a bunch of ideas swarming around in my head, ready to be put on paper, but lately, that's not happening for me. I want to know if anyone else has had this feeling? I am hoping that this is just a thing right now so that I can get back on my game. I haven't really written anything as far as ...

So on Saturday I took my son to a birthday party for my friend's daughter and happened to bring one of my books, What Happened to Kerbie Walobee? which I gave to my friend's wife as a gift. After leaving the party and coming home my friend text me a few hours later to tell me that he was reading the book and he was interested in collaborating on a book with me...He's an illustrator by the way and I can't wait to work with him. I think putting some artwork in your books bring it to life for your readers, if you're writing for children and also have a want to illustrate your work. They are able to see the image of the character that you've thought of; even though I think you should totally put the character a couple pages back so that they can build their own image and then let them see if what they thought of looks like what the artist drew. Here is some of Ian Willis's work: (All rights to these pictures belong to the artist).... Ian has a degree in ...

I'm setting here in the laundry and this whole scene just popped into my head so I thought I would share it with you. It kind of makes me feel bad since it reminds me of a title I have yet to finish, but will happily get to it when I am inspired again. It's really hard since all I have to write is the end, but at the same time the ending can also make or break your story..but either way I hope you enjoy my little piece inspired also by the upcoming Valentine's Day. GEMMA' S HAPPY VALENTINE'S "I'm not going anywhere with you," she told him sternly, "you think because you bring me some cheap roses and an apology everything is okay?" "I don't know how many times I can say I'm sorry." He said to her with insincere tears in his eyes. " I really don't know what happened sweetie, one minute were talking and the next thing I remember is you standing at the door screaming as I woke up." " listen Troy, I w...
