NaNoWriMo Day #9

I just completed 19,545 words overall on my NaNo Project.  I'm quite pleased and cannot wait to get through at least the first round of edits so that I can begin looking for beta readers!!!  I'm hoping to try to get this in front of a traditional publisher, but I will most likely get impatient and do it myself.  I already have a book cover design for it.  Who knows?

The Whispers in the Silence: A Return to the Page

  Nine years. A lifetime, really. Nine years of quiet, a silence born not of choice, but of the echoing ache left by loss. The words, once my constant companions, retreated, leaving me in a landscape of grief I never imagined I'd navigate. My parent's passing stole more than just their presence; it stole the very rhythm of my soul, the dance of words that had always defined me. But silence, even the deepest, most sorrowful silence, can't hold forever. It shifts, it cracks, it whispers. And in the quiet, I heard them. My characters. They were there, waiting patiently, their stories clamoring to be told. They’d been waiting in the wings, shrouded in the shadows of my grief, but never truly gone. And now, they're back, louder than ever. The rustle of parchment, the click of the keyboard – these sounds, once so familiar, now feel like a homecoming. The words, hesitant at first, are now flowing like a river breaking free from a long winter's freeze. The magic ...

It's Been a Few Days...

Hello my wonderful readers....while there are some of you who have stuck with me through this difficult time, these difficult years, I want to express my gratitude to you.  Those who are new, I say welcome.  I have changed some direction from the last time that I self-published.  I am more...deliberate, less...impulsive in my attempts to bring you the stories that flow in my head.  Perhaps that comes with age.  Perhaps that comes with the emotions that grief brings.  I was always 'daddy's girl'.  I idolized my father.  Sure, we disagreed, we clashed a lot, but that was because we both have a penchant for being stubborn when we think we are right.  Who really knows?  Still, the loss of my father has brought about many changes in my personal life.  Life is an interesting journey full of so much, whether bad or good.  So, without further ado, here is a short unofficial synopsis of Winter's Echo: Mark of the Gods.   Synop...
